      Basic Particle Exercise with \u300c\u306f\u300d<\/h2>\n

      Let’s first get used to the basic concept of particles by making some very simple sentences with them. In this first exercise, we are going to use the topic particle to explain the current topic of conversation. Remember, the topic particle \u300c\u306f\u300d is always pronounced as \/wa\/.<\/p>\n

      Particle Exercise with \u300c\u306f\u300d and \u300c\u3082\u300d<\/h2>\n

      Now we are going to practice getting used to the differences between the \u300c\u306f\u300d and \u300c\u3082\u300d particles. The sentences are actually pretty lame but this was the only way I could think of to make obvious which particle should be used. Remember, the point is to get a sense of when and when not to use the inclusive particle instead of the topic particle.<\/p>\n

      Fill in the blank with the correct particle, either \u300c\u306f\u300d or \u300c\u3082\u300d<\/h3>\n

      Particle Exercise with \u300c\u306f\u300d, \u300c\u3082\u300d, \u300c\u304c\u300d<\/h2>\n

      In this last exercise, we will practice all three particles by identifying which one should be used for different types of situations. Remember that the \u300c\u304c\u300d particle is only used when you want to identify something out of many other possibilities. While there are some cases where both \u300c\u306f\u300d and \u300c\u304c\u300d makes sense grammatically, because they mean different things, the correct one all depends on what you want to say.<\/p>\n

      Fill in the blank with the correct particle, either \u300c\u306f\u300d\u3001 \u300c\u3082\u300d\u3001 or \u300c\u304c\u300d<\/h3>\n
