In the context of nuanced emphasis and topic marking, which particle, "wa" or "ga", is more likely to introduce a *new* or *contrasting* topic that the speaker wishes to highlight as the subject of discussion, especially when introducing information that diverges from a previously established context?
Consider the sentence: 「猫がいます。」 (Neko ga imasu. - There is a cat.) Now, consider a scenario where the speaker has been discussing dogs, and wants to introduce the existence of a cat as a contrasting piece of information. Which particle would be used to mark "cat" as the *topic* of this contrasting statement?
In the sentence 「私は寿司が好きです。」 (Watashi wa sushi ga suki desu. - I like sushi.), "wa" marks "watashi" (I) as the topic. If the speaker wants to emphasize that *it is sushi* specifically that they like, to the exclusion of other foods, which particle would be used to mark "sushi" as the focus of this specific liking?
