Dec 11, 2016 at 11:47 comment added naruto @Dekiru Oh, good point. 彼が殺してある doesn't work in the same way as 本が置いてある. Probably because 彼 is a living thing (we don't say 彼がある in the first place).
Dec 11, 2016 at 11:26 comment added Dekiru I though that が can be used to imply the readiness of the object. セーターが出してある. ホテルの予約がしてある. 電気が消してある. Especially if you don't want to focus on the subject, but on the object instead. Is this a misconception or does not apply to animate objects?
