Need help with grammar!

I am struggling with when to use ka, ga, o, wo, wa, and similar. I understand a bit of Japanese and can hear the main things but that’s about it.

  1. Its too deep a topic for reddit, I suggest youtube and websites. There are so many of them, you can even choose which kind of information presentation that pleases you.

  2. In short:

    か – question marker

    が – subject marker

    お – honorific prefix

    を – object marker

    は – topic marker (similar to ga, but their similarities and differences are a can of worms)

    There are others, like へ and に which both can mean “to/towards”. に can also be an indirect object marker. の often denotes possession.

    Particles can get complex, so it’s definitely something that takes time, practice, and research.

    Best of luck in your Japanese endeavors!

  3. **Japanese ammo with Misa** talks about all those particles, id REALLY suggest checking out her videos about them.

    Doesnt have a full video about 御 (お/ご) but it does get brought up often in a lot of her videos, especially while teaching vocabulary and the most common/preferable way to say some words (like say, 金 vs お金, which is pretty useful for beginners)
