(postposition, Japanese) The Japanese postposition (like a preposition except after a word) "wa" is the topic marker, which identifies the topic (duh) of [the sentence]. The literal meaning is "As for (noun)." Usually the topic and the subject are the same thing, but only if the topic has already been introduced; [otherwise], you use the subject marker "ga." Additionally, "wa" can be used to indicate contrast or emphasis of the subject. The way "wa" is [being used] depends on context and intonation.
