AB - This study is to reinterpret various meanings of the adnominal markers, '-ten' and '-essten'. An analysis of the spoken language corpus revealed that '-ten' was used to represent speaker’s continuance of experience. If a contrast situation appeared in the main clause, the meaning of 'continuance' was broken off. '-Essten' was more frequently used than '-ten' in the cases where speaker wanted to make a retrospective meaning of an adjective clearer. When adjective is combined with '-essten', meaning of 'experience' was emphasized. When verb is combined with '-ten', meaning of either 'continuance' or 'common habit' was represented. When '-essten' is attached to a verb, meaning of 'completion' of an experience is revealed more clearly. On the other hand, '-ita/anita' rarely appeared with '-ten' but combined freely with '-essten'. This study reinterpreted meanings of '-ten' and '-essten' which were simply interpreted as 'perfective' and 'imperfective' in the previous studies. The findings of this study provides more information to enhance our understanding of '-ten, -essten'.
