Grammar: In this article, you'll learn the following words and
phrases:
The focus of today's lesson is Morau, a class-one verb we use to
express that the speaker, or somebody whom the speaker thinks he/
she is psychologically near to (in-group), receives some thing from
someone. When morau follows the -te type of another verb, it acts as
an auxiliary meaning "someone is performing something for [me or a
person in group]." The doer is marked from the particle ni, and also
the beneficiary is marked by wa, but it's usually omitted because the
beneficiary is usually the speaker.
Example 1a) expresses that Natsuko's father received her (beneficiary)
a bag, in other words, she obtained his favor. The doer is marked
from the particle ni. If you concentrate around the doer with the
sentence rather than the beneficiary when you wish to explain the same
occasion, you can use the auxiliary verb kureru rather than morau. In
that case, the doer is marked by the particle ga. See today's instance
1b.
Example 2a) expresses that Keisuke (speaker/beneficiary) needed to
share a chocolate with Koji (doer), and Koji kindly shared it with
Keisuke. Present day instance 2b doesn't overtly possess a beneficiary
or doer. So, you are able to simply change the verb morau and kureru
to describe exactly the same occasion.
Instance one:
a) O-too-san ni katte moratta no.
"My father purchased it for me."
b) O-too-san ga katte kureta no.
"My father bought it for me."
Instance two:
a) Chotto dake wakete moratta n da yo.
"He shared it with me."
b) Chotto dake wakete kureta n da yo.
"He shared it with me."
