Learn Japanese grammar: を (o / wo). Meaning: object marker particle. The particle を is used to indicate the target of a verb, and is therefore called the “object marker”.
The standard pattern for use is:
- NounをVerb
- 肉を食べる。
- niku o taberu.
- To eat meat
In this example, を is marking the preceding noun (meat) as the subject for the verb (to eat).
The romaji version is commonly written as just “o”, but is more of a “wo” sound.
