wa particle in konnichi wa ?[edit]

What is literal translation of konnichi wa and how does wa particle, which is a topic marker, fits here ? Husachde (talk) 04:07, 14 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

See the main article: 今日は#Etymology Basically, the rest of a presumed sentence regarding the day is left unsaid since the meaning of the saying as a greeting is understood. Arlo Barnes (talk) 19:45, 16 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
