Grammar
N5AI-drafted〜が(主語)
subject marker (new or emphasised information)
Formation
N + が + V/い形容詞/な形容詞
Usage
が marks the subject of a sentence, especially when the subject is new information, is being pointed out, or answers the question "who/what?". It is also used with existence verbs (ある・いる), with natural phenomena, and inside relative clauses. Compare with は, which marks a known topic: 「私は学生です」(as for me) vs 「私がします」(it is I who will do it). Beginners often overuse は; use が when you introduce something for the first time or when the word before it is the answer to a question.
