Questions & Answers about watasi ha mata nihongo wo benkyousimasu.

Why is は used after 私 instead of が or no particle at all?

• In Japanese, は is the topic marker (“as for…”), not just the subject.
• By saying 私 は, you’re setting “me” as the topic of the sentence (“As for me”).
• が would introduce new or focused information (“It is I who…”), and dropping the particle entirely is only allowed in very casual speech or set phrases.

What’s the function of また in this sentence?

• また means “again” or “once more.”
• It indicates that you’ve studied Japanese before and are doing it one more time.
• Placement: adverbs like また generally come before the verb or before the object+verb phrase, so また日本語を勉強します is natural.

Why is 日本語 followed by を, not が or に?

• を marks the direct object of a transitive verb.
• 勉強する (to study) is transitive, so the thing being studied (日本語) takes を.
• が marks the sentence’s subject or thing doing the action; に marks an indirect object or location.

Why is the verb 勉強します at the end of the sentence?

• Japanese follows a Subject–Object–Verb (SOV) order.
• Verbs (and adjectives) typically come at the very end of a clause or sentence.

Why is it 勉強します instead of the dictionary form 勉強する?

• 勉強します is the polite present/future form used in formal or polite contexts.
• 勉強する is the plain (dictionary) form, more casual and often used in writing, diaries, or among close friends.

Can I omit 私 and just say また日本語を勉強します?

• Yes. Japanese often drops the topic or subject when it’s clear from context.
• If you’re already talking about yourself, また日本語を勉強します is perfectly natural.
