In this part of “Pegasus Fantasy” lyrics, I don’t understand the “ja inai to” part.
While studying verb compounds and reading more on lexical and syntactic compounds,auxiliaries,stem form,ect. I’ve began to understand more and more,but I have one little question.
What exactly is a “fixed meaning” when it comes to verb + auxiliary compounds. I kinda roughly understand the concept of it but I’d like to know a little more about what it means. Like I know that some compounds have fixed meanings but I don’t understand completely what that means. Fixed meanings,from what i’ve gathered,are a little more concrete(?) and maybe aren’t as flexible in their usage,If that’s the right word. I’m asking here because unfortunately- try as I might,it’s almost impossible to find anything on this subject. Thank you in advance!
I need some help with upvotes. I have a question too long for this thread, but dont have enough upvotes to actually post anything.
