As an example of parallel corpus analysis, the present paper introduces a study of voice expressions in Marathi and Japanese translations of "The Diary of Anne Frank"'. The study particularly focuses on "Agent Defocusing", which affects voice alternation, i.e., active and passive.

The author of this research has the experience of teaching Japanese to Marathi JSL (Japanese as Second Language)* learners for the last two years. While teaching Japanese, she realized that there were some similarities between Japanese and Marathi structure from typological perspective. Also it is assumed that Marathi JSL learners tend to make errors caused by L1 (speaker's mother language) interference. The major aims of this study is to investigate the tendencies of Japanese case marking particle errors made by Marathi L1 speakers and to examine the extent to which interference occurs by using contrastive and error analysis. The result of error analysis shows that 54 percent of all errors seem to be caused by L1 interference.

The major findings of the study are as follows: First, both languages have the same organisation of proposition i.e., p though ￢q for the concessive conditionals. Second, both languages use a concessive conditional clause for other extensive expressions. Third, though Marathi concessive conditionals are considered as finite, its clauses exhibit features of non-finite languages like Japanese. Fourth, the difference between the structures of Marathi and Japanese concessive conditional is in the verb inflection.

Japanese noun modifying constructions (NMCs hereafter) can be divided into two major types: Inner relationship and Outer relationship.
This classification was created by Teramura (19751978), which is Japanese-specific and has been used in Japanese education for non-Japanese speakers to teach NMCs.
This study examines the similarities and differences of NMCs between Japanese and Marathi by using the Teramura’s classification.

This classification was created by Teramura (1975-1978), which is Japanese-specific and has been used in Japanese education for non-Japanese speakers to teach NMCs. This paper examines the similarities and differences of NMCs between Japanese and Marathi by applying the Teramura's classification. Particularly, it focuses on how Japanese outer relationship construction corresponds to Marathi. This paper will also provide key points to be considered at the time of introducing Japanese NMCs to Marathi native speakers.
