My graduation thesis
A* comparison between English demonstratives “this and that” and Japanese demonstratives “Kore, Sore and Are.”1. Introduction
This paper discusses English and Japanese demonstratives by comparing the two languages in translation. English demonstratives are 'this' and 'that' and Japanese demonstratives are 'Kore', 'Sore' , 'Are'.** When I was at junior high school, I learned we translate: this is Kore, that is Are, and, it is Sore. However sometimes that is translated Sore and some this is translated Are or Sore. The fact is, it has other rules to translate English demonstratives to Japanese demonstratives.*** This study will clarify the deviation of instruction expression in English and Japanese.
*A Comparison Between.... is your title, I think. It is better to write here 'A' rather than 'The'. That way it sounds more objective, since several comparisons are possible and not just uniquely one: 'The Comparison..') (Academics like humility).
**At the start (right here), it is better to put these words in quotes since you refer to words and not meanings. Or else, you can write this and that and Kore and Sore and Are.
***This is unclear. Do you mean 1.The fact is, it has other rules to translate English demonstratives to Japanese demonstratives. OR 2.The fact is, there are other rules to translate English demonstratives to Japanese demonstratives.?
Very well written, but please take some time explaining your initial terms.
