Nも (N mo) — N too / also
The marker for "too / also" — it takes the place of は.
Formula (सूत्र ढाँचा)
Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)
When to use it
- Someone says 田中さんは学生です (Tanaka is a student), and you are a student as well — put も in place of は and say 私も学生です (I am a student too).
- Use it whenever you add something that matches what was just said.
Meaning
The formula is simple: [ noun ] + も = "… too / also".
Watch out
も pushes は out and takes its seat — 私はも, with both together, never happens.
Examples (उदाहरणहरू)
田中さんは学生です。私も学生です。
たなかさんはがくせいです。わたしもがくせいです。
Tanaka is a student. I am a student too.
How it is built (कसरी बन्यो) The first sentence has 田中さんは. In the second we need to say the same thing with "me too": 私は ──> [ - ❌ は ] ──> [ + も ✅ ] ──> 私も学生です.
これはお茶です。それもお茶です。
これはおちゃです。それもおちゃです。
This is tea. That is tea too.
How it is built (कसरी बन्यो) Saying the same thing as これは (as for this), now about それ: それは ──> [ - ❌ は ] ──> [ + も ✅ ] ──> それもお茶です (that is tea too).
キティさんも先生です。
キティさんもせんせいです。
Kitty is a teacher too.
How it is built (कसरी बन्यो) キティさんは (as for Kitty) ──> [ - ❌ は ] ──> [ + も ✅ ] ──> キティさんも = "Kitty too". Then 先生です.
Knowledge check (मिनी ज्ञान जाँच)
How do you say "I am Japanese too"? (Japanese = 日本人)
💡 Hint: も instead of は.
私も日本人です = "I am Japanese too." 私はも is wrong — も takes は's seat.
Fill: これ＿お茶です。("This is tea too")
💡 Hint: You need "too".
これもお茶です = "This is tea too."
In this lesson’s sentences (like 私も学生です), which marker does 「も」 replace?
💡 Hint: 私は学生です → 私も学生です — which marker went away?
In this lesson も takes the place of は — the two never appear together (私はも ❌). Later you will see that も can also replace を (お茶も飲みます).
