In a sentence, do you use 'waga' or 'onoga' for possession?


Words in their kana: 我が

Or do I use

己が

Which is more natural?




If you're talking about modern Japanese, **neither is natural** outside of a
very short list of fossilized expressions, which themselves are only natural
in a very short list of circumstances.

If you want to say _my_ , the most natural way to do so in everyday modern
Japanese is:

  * 私【わたくし】の
  * 私【わたし】の
  * 自分【じぶん】の (literally "one's own", very context dependent)
  * 僕【ぼく】の
  * 俺【おれ】の

These are roughly listed in order from most polite to most casual.
