I really don't understand when to use の and when to use が
I always connect nouns and adjectives using が For example: 髪が長いです。 But when I use 頭がいい人, my teacher says it should be 頭のいい人. Is it because there is another noun 人 after the adjective いい? Which of the following is correct? 髪が長い人? 髪の長い人? |

Your sentence with が can only be used in limited situations. Suppose you and I are looking at a pic of 5 girls. I ask you, "Which ones do you find pretty?" and you can say by pointing to one of the girls, "彼女の顔が綺麗です". No. We never say 彼女の顔の綺麗です. This sentence lacks the subject marker, which is は. |
