English can mark topics, but often relies on ordinary clause structure and context rather than dedicated topic markers.
As for the price, it is too high.
the price = topic lane
तुम्ही शिकत असलेल्या भाषेत
Topics often appear at the beginning and can be resumed with a clitic.
El coche, lo vendí ayer.
The car, I sold it yesterday.
Learners may produce unnatural topic structures without the required clitic.
