Noun も

The particle 「も」 means “also” or “too”, and it’s used to indicate that something is in addition to something else.

It replaces particles like 「は」(topic marker) or 「が」(subject marker) or 「を」(object marker) when you want to say “also” or “too”.

Examples:

1. Adding to a list of items/people:
   • 私はりんごを食べます。バナナも食べます。
   • I eat apples. I eat bananas too.
2. Indicating shared characteristics:
   • 田中さんは日本人です。山田さんも日本人です。
   • Tanaka is Japanese. Yamada is also Japanese.

Notes:

• 「も」 replaces particles, so don’t use it with particles like は or が or を.
  • ✅ わたしも
  • ❌ わたしはも
• も after に / で / へ (instead of replacing them):
  • にほんに いきます。とうきょうにも いきます。
    I’m going to Japan. I’m also going to Tokyo.
• Unlike English “too” (which can go at sentence end), も must be placed directly after the noun sharing a property with something previously mentioned Example: A は X です / B も X です (A wa X desu / B mo X desu)

Nice to know:

• Double も construction (AもBも):
  • りんごも バナナも すきです。(I like both apples and bananas.)
