Japanese Language 「Sentence Structure」 The dictionary form of a verb, followed by the particle combination made ni ("before/by/until the time when"), indicates another temporal limit for an action. The tense of a sentence using made ni is determined by the final verb. Examples: 飛行機がシカゴに着くまでに小説を読んでしまった。 Hikōki ga Shikago ni tsuku made ni shōsetsu o yonde shimatta. By the time the plane arrived in Chicago, I had read a novel. 課長が旅行から戻るまでにこの書類を調べておきます。 Kachō ga ryokō kara modoru made ni kono shorui o shirabete okimasu. I'll check these papers (in advance) before the section chief returns from his trip. Hope this helps! じゃまたね! °˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °こゆうきあいはら°˖ ✧◝(○ ヮ ○)◜✧˖ °
