Questions & Answers about watasi ha asita atarasii suutu wo kiru.

Why is used after and what does it indicate?

is the topic‐marker particle. It tells the listener “I’m talking about me.” In this sentence, (I) is the topic, so we put after it. You could think of it like saying “As for me, …”


Can be omitted here?

Yes. Japanese often drops pronouns when context makes them clear. If the listener already knows you’re talking about yourself, you can simply say:
明日新しいスーツを着る。


Why is used after スーツ and what role does it play?

marks the direct object—the thing being acted upon. Here, the action is 着る (to wear), and the object of that action is スーツ (a suit). So スーツ gets to show “wear the suit.”


Why is 明日 placed before the rest of the sentence?

Time expressions (like 明日) typically come early in Japanese sentences. A common order is:

  1. Time (e.g. 明日)
  2. Topic/subject (e.g. )
  3. Object (e.g. スーツ)
  4. Verb (e.g. 着る)

This ordering helps listeners process “when” before “who does what.”


Why is there no particle after 明日? Shouldn’t we say 明日に?

Many one-word time expressions (like 明日, 今日, 明後日) function adverbially without a particle. You could say 明日に着る in very formal or written Japanese, but in everyday speech you usually drop and just say 明日.


What does 着る mean and how is it different from はく or 着用する?

着る (kiru) means “to wear” or “put on” clothing items worn from the shoulders down (shirts, jackets, suits).
はく (haku) is used for items you step into or pull on from below (shoes, pants, skirts).
着用する (chakuyō suru) is a more formal or written way to say “wear” (e.g. in signs: ヘルメットを着用すること).


Why is the verb in plain form 着る even though the action is in the future?

Japanese verbs don’t change form between present and future. The non-past form (here, 着る) covers both “wear” and “will wear.” The time word 明日 tells you it’s a future action.


How would you say this sentence in polite form?

Change the verb to its polite (ます) form. The rest stays the same:
明日新しいスーツ着ます


Why is 新しい placed before スーツ?

In Japanese, adjectives directly modify nouns and always come before them. Here, 新しい (new) describes スーツ, so you say 新しいスーツ (“new suit”).
