Episode 27 - Interrogative words with particle "ga" (nani ga, doko ga, dore ga etc.)

Learn Japanese with Masa sensei!

- Grammar point -

The particle wa cannot be used together with a question word, because wa specifies the topic of a sentence, which is information already known to the speaker. On the other hand, it is possible to use wa when there is a question word in the comment (the part of the sentence that follows the topic).

The particle ga marks the grammatical subject of a sentence. Always use ga when the subject is, or contains, a question word.
