How similarly do Hindi rakhnā and Japanese oku PUT behave as a V2? A corpus-based comparative analysis
-
Miki Nishioka
Abstract
This paper aims to use an online Hindi corpus in order to investigate the restrictions in Hindi on the co-occurrence of the stem form of the main verb (V1) plus the vector rakhnā PUT or KEEP together with negative particles (nahı̄̃, na, and mat for imperative forms); and, using Japanese translations of Hindi short stories and a novel, to examine how similarly or differently this Hindi construction works compared with oku, the Japanese equivalent verb as V2.
