Hi, I’m still a newbie…
I bumped into a practice sentence online (not on bunpro)
明日けんさんと話します
“I will talk to Ken tomorrow”
話す is a transitive verb. Per Bunpro I would have expected
明日けんさんを話します
This use of と looks more like the Bunpro grammar point of “with” (I talk with Ken). I guess that makes sense in english but the Bunpro form was Noun + は + Noun + と+ Verb per と (JLPT N5) | Bunpro – Japanese Grammar Explained
I guess “私は” subject is already set per context so it can be omitted…
- Is this example sentence proper use of と ?
- Is there a “sense” or a feeling about と vs を here that I can get?
Thank you
EDIT: maybe the sense is “we’re together” vs “I’m telling”?
