The topic particle ã¯ is used when introducing a topic and gives focus to the action of the sentence (i.e., the verb or the adjective). The subject marker ã is used when emphasising the subject giving focus to the subject of the action. One can also think of it as replacing ~ã¯ with the phrase as for ~, on the topic of ~ or regarding ~ to distinguish it from ã.
The Warriors changed their name to the Golden State Warriors for the 1971â72 season, playing almost all home games in Oakland. Six home games were played in San Diego during that season but more significantly, none were played in San Francisco or Daly City.
