も after other particles

[dairwolf]

I was wondering what other particles も can be used after. I know that e.g. 日本でも (also in Japan) or 先生とも (also with the teacher) make sense, but e.g. 食べたばかりも doesn't seem to make sense to me. Does somebody have a complete list that has all the possible combinations of particle + も?

For something like this you should consult a Japanese dictionary (eg. Koujien)

Hmm, I don't think the list is so useful, if it may exist. For instance, 食べたばかりも exactly may not make much sense, but it can be used in some contexts (e.g. 空腹では動けないが、食べたばかりもそうだ), and ～てばかりも is more common, as in 食べてばかりもいられない. Similarly, も generally can't be used after the listing particle や(e.g. ×日本語や英語やも話す), but we can say 来るやも知れぬ（＝来るかも知れない）. That basically depends on the context or meaning.

AFAIK, only は, が, こそ, and しか can't be used before も, except sentence final particles. Although もは/もが is correct or at least acceptable（e.g. 誰もは/誰もが知らない）, plus, もこそ exists in classical Japanese(e.g. 音に聞く高師の浜のあだ波はかけじや袖の濡れもこそすれ).

I agree. Also some particles ending in も are actual words with a set meaning, such as "demo" "keredo(mo)" "tomo" (sometimes) and other times simply incidental combinations that are interchangable.
