Questions & Answers about watashi wa ashita no kaigi ni shiryou o motte ikimasu.

Is Japanese normally written with spaces like this?

No. Normal Japanese writing does not use spaces between words.

This sentence would usually be written as:

私は明日の会議に資料を持っていきます。

Spaces are often added in beginner materials to make the parts easier to see.

Why is 私 included here? Can it be omitted?

Yes, it can often be omitted.

Japanese frequently leaves out subjects when they are clear from context. So in a real conversation, a speaker might simply say:

明日の会議に資料を持っていきます。

Including 私 makes the subject explicit: as for me / I. Textbooks often include it more than native speakers do.

Why is the particle は used after 私 instead of が?

は marks the topic of the sentence, while が more strongly marks the subject or gives new/emphatic information.

So:

• 私は... = As for me, ...
• 私が... = I am the one who ... or a more focused I

In this sentence, 私は sounds natural because the speaker is just stating what they will do, not emphasizing that it is specifically I and not someone else.

Why is there a の in 明日の会議?
