Pronouns are dependant of Topic and Operator.
This way, you only say what's important to be said.
When that's the case, a Pronoun must be used to clarify meaning, but most basic sentences use them. Even then, we only use them if that's the case, when it's important to use a Pronoun.
You must consider that you are clarifying (a question) all the time.
All sentences are taken as an answer, not as a statement.
This way, you're looking for the question, when someone say something –– this is a way back grammar trick you must use when deciding how to keep going during conversation, so keep asking what the question is.
That's why we use Operator, and take off unuseful information.
Sometimes, you don't need to declare Topic again and again.
So, the first position is empty, and you start with a Verb.
Usually, the first part is the Topic (what you're talking about), but when you need to answer an undeclared question you have to wonder what the question is, and that's what you need to say –– the answer.
The answer is always what's needed to be said.
If you need to use a Pronoun, then it's part of the question.
We can always think of "Who did that?".
Pick up a Pronoun, you don't need to say people's name.
You can answer, for example "Atera wa".
It means someone did that, but it was "not you".
We'll see examples on how to answer difficult questions very soon.
I hope you're enjoying the reading.
Stay Plugged.
