パーチィーばかりじゃ体がもたないや

[patroclus]

Hi

I found the following sentence, which I don't fully understand.
パーチィーばかりじゃ体がもたないや

What does "ja" mean here?

I would translate パーチィーばかり as "the only party/parties"



thank you!

じゃis sorta slang for では

パーティばかりでは体がもたない

make more sense?
It goes along the lines of

Your body won't keep up with you if you're partying all the time

 

[patroclus]

I don't understand what では means when used before a noun...
except, that で is a particle maked as topic by は

I would then translate it like...
About only parties, body won't last long.

But I don't really understand how to think about で marked also as は...

Don't so seriously. ja means "deha". It is enought to understand so. So do we.
Ja is more colloquial than deha, I feel.
