3:13 In the sentence すしとかうどんとかがおいしいです ("Sushi and udon are delicious"), とか is used to list examples of items without implying exclusivity. Here's a breakdown of why とか is the appropriate choice over と, や, or も: 1. とか (toka) Usage: This is used to indicate examples in a non-exhaustive way. It suggests that there are other items in addition to the ones mentioned. Example: The phrase implies that sushi and udon are examples of delicious foods but does not limit the list to just those two. You could add other foods as well. 2. と (to) Usage: This particle is used to connect items in a definitive manner, often implying that the list is complete or exclusive. It translates to "and." Example: If you used と, the sentence would be understood as saying sushi and only udon are delicious, which is too limiting for this context. 3. や (ya) Usage: Similar to とか, や can also imply non-exhaustiveness, but it’s less common so While や can be used in casual speech, it is often more prevalent in formal writing or when listing items in a more organized manner. Example: You could say すしやうどん as well, but とか feels more casual and conversational. 4. も (mo) Usage: This means "also" or "too," and is used to indicate inclusion rather than listing. Example: If you said すしもおいしいです, it would mean "Sushi is also delicious," but it doesn't imply the inclusion of udon or other items. Summary In your example, とか is appropriate because it conveys that sushi and udon are two examples of delicious foods, and it leaves the door open for mentioning other foods in the same context. If you were to use と, it would incorrectly imply that only sushi and udon are delicious, which isn't the intention here.
