"I will see him next week."

Translation: 来週、かれに会います。

[LucidusAtra]

On some other exercises, I get a wrong answer for not including the particle は after 来週. Why is it okay to omit here? Is it just less formal to omit it? If so, it should be an accepted answer elsewhere.

[V2Blast]

は is usually not necessary. It just emphasizes the time as the topic of the sentence.

[Sorusan]

what's the function of に in this sentence

[_IX]

[来週、] [かれ]に [会います]
[next week,] [him]← [i will meet]

に indicates who you will meet with.

[_IX]

But if your answer is:
[かれは] [来週]に [会います]
[as for him] [next week]← [will meet]

then に indicates when you will meet this person.

Why not を

What particle would I use if I wanted to swap かれ and 来週 in this sentence?

[Dave497450]

I was specifically marked wrong for including the は particle (as in, 来週はかれに会います) -is there a specific reason it should not be used? Perhaps something to do with the fact that 会います requires an obligatory に particle and the は particle confuses the sentence?

[RobbPorter]

It just doesn't appear to be necessary to use it after a time period.

Is 来週は彼を会います gramatically wrong? If so, can you tell me why? Thanks.
