I've got a sentence which, I believe, has to be translated in Japanese using
"Aの方がC" construction.

> Anna learns Japanese more (than for example English)

Can I translate it as 「アンナは日本語の方をたくさん勉強します」?

Or is it possible to write it this way: 「アンナは日本語の方がたくさんを勉強します」？

UPD: I might've misinterpreted the sentence due to wrong emphasis, since the
original sentence is in Russian.

> **Anna** learns Japanese more (than somebody else)

So, basically, it is 「アンナの方が日本語をたくさん勉強します」

But what if the emphasis was on **Japanese**?

question
grammar particle-が particle-を
Can が be interchanged with を？
> アンナは日本語の方をたくさん勉強します。

This sentence is fine.

> xアンナは日本語の方がたくさんを勉強します。

This sentence has two problems.

  1. You have 日本語の方 as the subject (marked by が) of 勉強する, but it is not the **Japanese** that is doing the studying; it is Anna.
  2. You have たくさん as the object (marked by を) of 勉強する, but Anna is studying **Japanese**. She is not studying たくさん.

> アンナの方が日本語をたくさん勉強します。

This sentence is fine.

You ask "But what if the emphasis was on Japanese?". I think you answered that
with your first translation, didn't you?
