Can が replace を? Hi :) I'm not sure about a way in which I use が when writing Japanese. I read in Genki that sometimes it can replace は, but in some cases I see it used not just with the subject (instead of は), but also with the target of an action (replacing を or に. For example, 「僕は彼女*が*大好きです」) So my question is, When I want to emphasize the target of an action, is it gramatically correct to use が in the place of を? Examples: 僕は、jisho.org がよく使います。(Someone asked which online dictionary I usually use. I reply that the dictionary I use is jisho.org.) 佐藤さんが会いに行きます。(Someone asked who am I going to meet, I reply that I go to meet Satou-san, omitting 僕は). So in these sentences, is が causing jisho.org or Satou-san to be the subject (jisho.org is using something, Satou-san goes to meet someone) or does 僕 remain the subject? (I use jisho.org, I go to meet Satou-san)? Thanks in advance!

僕は 彼女*が*大好きです is perfectly correct, but not because there's an object there. It is because" watashi wa NOUN ga daisuki desu" is a grammatical construction, used very often and very common. For example, watashi wa kuruma ga daisuki desu, or, watashi wa kuruma ga kirai desu, or, watashi wa kuruma ga hoshii desu. But it still would be kuruma o uten suru not kuruma ga uten suru, it's just that these three verbs (kirai, daisuki, and hoshii) are used with particle ga, not with particle o.
