Dear All
I have been very confused with the use of は、のは、のに.
Could anyone teach me with some solid examples on how to use them correctly(differentiate them)?
The のに is not telling however or but in the meaning. It seems like なになに＋の＋に...I am confused...

Also there is many situation I need to choose between が and は for the main subject topic particle. How to determine which of them is right for certain subject topic?


Thank you so much for your help and teaching.
best regards
Jason

please do a search for "particles" or even the particular particles you are asking about. This has been typed many times here any elsewhere, if you have a specific question, feel free to ask it.

Japanese particles - Wikipedia has a pretty comprehensive list of particles and their functions.
