Abstract

In the classical Japanese language there were six tense-aspectual verbal auxiliaries: Ki and Keri (past tense verbal auxiliaries) and Tsu, Nu, Tari and Ri (perfective aspect verbal auxiliaries). In the classical Japanese language evolution process to the modem language, these two distinct groups of verbal auxiliaries were reduced to only one verbal auxiliary Ta, originated from the classical languages perfective verbal auxiliary Tari. This study aims to study the Tari’s evolution since the classical language until the modem, demonstraining the variation of points of view during this evolution.
