I was just inspired by the shout box on my left about how does one can express their love for sushi. I did not want to pollute the shout box, so I'll write it here. I'd write:
私、すし、大好き!
(わたし、すし、だいすき!)- I love sushi!
How would you express your love for sushi? Kanji, kana, romaji, spoken, written - anything goes. Please, share it!

But anyway, I'd use the good old 私は寿司が大好き instead of all those てん.

What is with all the commas? A list of words separated by commas does not make a sentence.
Do you believe commas can be used as substitutes for particles?

僕は寿司が大好きだよ

They can, in speech. If this is supposed to be a direct representation of something spoken, no particles are necessary.chikara wrote:I, sushi, loveKonstantin wrote:私、すし、大好き!

Agreed, there are times in speech when particles are dropped and pauses/breaths, as represented by commas, used but that spoken phrase sounds very unnatural to me.Yudan Taiteki wrote:They can, in speech.

I'm sure if the poster had asked "is 私、寿司、大好き the correct way to say 'I love sushi'" you may have taken a different view

僕の答え、こちらです。
すしって、特別な食べ物です。はらいっぱいになったら、幸せです。わさびも、特別なもの。いっしょに、すごいコンビになるぞ。ジンジャーも、特別なことです。すしとわさびの完璧なバランス起こすから。
