Can someone explain the Japanese particles to me?

Answer 1

http://www.guidetojapanese.org/ is an excellent site to visit to learn about Japanese grammatics.

Answer 2

In English, the relationship of nouns to the rest of the sentence is often expressed through what are known as prepositions. These are words that are positioned ("position") before ("pre"), hence "preposition", the noun that they relate to. Thus, the role of nouns can be identified by position within the sentence, such as subject and indirect object, or by the use of a preposition, such as "to", "from", "at", etc.

Japanese is similar to this, in that the role of nouns is marked by separate words. However, in Japanese, all nouns must be marked, as position alone is insufficient to mark nouns, unlike English where the subject and typically the direct object can be marked by position alone. In Japanese, such markers, often known as particles, follow the noun that they relate to, and hence are postpositions.
