Time Adverbials /ashita/, /rainen/, etc.

I will go to Kyoto tomorrow.

• I will go to Kyoto  --> わたしは　きょうとに  いきます
• tomorrow --> ?  あした /ashita/
• The event described by /ik/ 'go; will go' has two roles: one the actor, and the other the goal of that movement.

Key 1: The time expressions as follows contain the meaning of the postposition /ni/ that describes the /on/at/in/-relation that holds between a point in time where an event takes place and that event. The postposition /ni/ MUST NOT follow them to describe the event-occurring time, and a pause is needed in place at the end of these time adverbials.

• now（いま）, today（きょう）, yesterday（きのう）, the day after tomorrow（あさって）, the day before yesterday（おととい）, this year（ことし）, next year（らいねん）, last year（きょねん）, and some time like these,
• when（いつ：the question word of time）, and
• an expression of APPROXIMATE time ごろ as in /about eight o’clock/（８じごろ）.

Key 2: If the time expression is /morning/ （あさ）, /noon/ （ひる）, /night/ （よる；ばん）, /tonight/ 　（こんばん）, or /weekend/ （しゅうまつ）, then it is either the pause or に.

Key 3: If the time is a particular point of time, e.g., /Sunday/ （にちようび）, /10 o’clock/ （１０じ）, /the year of 1999/ （１９９９ねん）, /September/ （くがつ）, then に is needed.

Key 4: There is no difference in the truth-conditional meanings between a clause with an order among a SUBJECT phrase, an OBJECT phrase, topic phrases, postpositional phrases, and time adverbials, and another clause with a different order among them.
