| Research Abstract |
There is a close relationship between case markers, focus markers, and topic markers as they can directly be attached to each other. This study contrasted case markers and focus markers in Kachin and Japanese, a follow-up to the contrastive study of topic markers in the two languages that I conducted up to the year 2010, and described the similarities and differences between the three types of markers in the two languages. The primary contributions of this study are that (1) it described markers of case and focus in Kachin more thoroughly than previous studies did and that (2) it revealed, through the comparison of Kachin and Japanese, the variation and typological characteristics of SOV languages.
