Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to observe and describe the differences and similarities of the conjunctive expressions of “UCHINI” and “AIDANI” according to their syntactical and morphological analyses.he results show that “AIDANI” only indicates a certain event occurs within a certain period of time, and that, owing to its semantic meaning of “simultaneous occurrence,” “UCHINI” can indicate that “something happened naturally or accidentally within a certain period of time.” Although both “UCHINI” and “AIDANI” means that the post matter has to be achieved within the expected period of time, “UCHINI” also means that the post matter must be achieved in the period of time in which the situation of the former matter doesn''t end. oreover, a speaker is involved in the time when using “UCHINI,” focusing on the ending of time of a certain event. However, a speaker is outside of the scope of a certain situation and is aware of both the start and end of time of a certain even when using “AIDANI,” which in comparison with “UCHINI” is a more objective form of speech. Finally, the two forms of conjunctive expression are syntactically developed from their noun counterpart: “UCHI” and “AIDA.” This indicates that their semantic meanings in noun have bleed to their current meanings, respectively.
