For those who took Korean: can someone explain to me when to use �/는 vs 가/�

[WestWorld]

I don't understand the differences between the two

ì€/는 is when you want to make a general statement or a fact

 

ê°€/ì´ can be used anytime

even I have trouble knowing when to use which, and I've been learning Korean for a year now. It's comparable to the wa (ã¯) and ga (ãŒ) particles in Japanese.

Honestly I had a lot of trouble with these particles and I got completely stuck on them for quite some time but then I decided to just go ahead with my studying even though I didn't fully get it and after awhile it just kinda fell into place naturally as my knowledge of the Korean language got better... if that makes sense haha.

In the case of these two particles appearing in the same sentence, ì€/는 marks the subject performing whatever verb while ê°€/ì´ marks the object. This is usually only important when these two appear together in the same sentence; quite often one gets left out and the meaning and context of the sentence is still easy to understand.

isn't that ì„/를 (저는 ì ì‹¬ì„ 먹어요/I am eating lunch)? ì€/는 is a topic marker.

Oops I guess I don't know the proper word for it and thought "subject" had that meaning lolol but yea you're right, it's a topic marker.
