Abstract

In Japanese, except for some grammars being able to express "can", possible expression of a verb can refer some abilities or conditions with possibility. This kind of possible expression is relative to a subject's will and wish. Therefore, the verb in its possible expression is full of will. Intransitive verb in Japanese is filled with will and express its own possible expression. However, when facing Japanese intransitive and transitive paired verbs, we are always confused to use its possible expression of Japanese intransitive verb or its transitive verb. This paper analyzes the possible expressions of Japanese intransitive verb or its transitive verb from the viewpoint of persons and objects respectively.
