| Research Abstract |
This study is an exploration of similarities and differences found in genitive constructions in Japanese and Hindi. Japanese has the morpheme 'no' as a genitive case marker. Hindi also has an equivalent a genitive postposition, 'kaa' functionally equivalent to Japanese 'no'. In addition, Hindi has another 'connector'- the suffix 'vaalaa'.
The main findings of this study so far are as follows: (1) both Hindi 'kaa' and Japanese 'no' are used for possessive, nominative, accusative and locative cases, (2) in the functions of pronominal and complementizer either 'kaa' or 'vaalaa' can be used as rough equivalents of Japanese 'no'. In particular, 'kaa' and 'vaalaa' possibly share different parts of the pronominal function.
