| dc.description.abstract | The thesis entitled “A Comparative Study of Imperatives in English and Maithili" endeavors to compare and contrast imperatives of Maithili and English languages. Imperative is a kind of sentence structure which begins with the root verb form underlying the different functions beneath it. The researcher collected data from both primary and secondary sources. The primary sources of data were native speakers of Maithili language from two schools of Sarlahi district and secondary sources of the data were standard grammars of English and Maithili, different books, journals and related theses. Myself as a native speaker of Maithili, I have used the data from colloquial as well as standard Maithili. Imperative sentence in both languages is similar with respect to the function, form, types and other grammatical treatment whereas they differ in terms of the tense, word order, honorificity and usage. | en_US |
