Ten sentences with a missing particle (は・が・を・に・で…), a word bank and an answer key — targeted practice for the mistakes beginners make most.
Particles are the small words that hold a Japanese sentence together — は marks the topic, を marks the object, に and で mark where things happen. They are also the single most common source of beginner mistakes, because English has no direct equivalent.
This worksheet drills particles the way that actually works: fill-in-the-blank sentences. You read ten natural sentences, each missing one particle, and choose the correct one from a word bank (は, が, を, に, で, へ, と, の). Each sentence has an English translation to give you context.
A full answer key lets you check yourself instantly, so you can practise alone and learn from every mistake. Reprint it whenever you want to re-test — spaced repetition of these patterns is what makes correct particle use automatic.
