Japanese learning (A5 S22): Application of “Verb Modified Noun” to a “ga” word of Wa-ga construction whose Predicate is I/Na-adjectives: [Topic] wa {[Verb Clause] + [Noun] }ga + [I-/Na- Adjective] desu.

We have been learning how to apply a “verb clause to modify a noun” to several types of sentences. Today’s sentence type is “Wa-ga construction” with adjective predicates. Though the same caution repeats every time when “Wa-ga construction” appears, a wa-ga construction and a transitive verb predicate sentence should not be confused.

– Wa-ga construction; [Topic] wa [Subject] ga [Predicate].

– Transitive verb predicate sentence; [Subject] wa/ga [Obkect] o [Transitive verb].

More simply, the particle “ga” is for a subject, the particle “o” is for an Object. This is very the basic of Japanese language.
