Details	Regarding the acquisition of "ha" and "ga" by learners of Japanese, "ha" for contrasts and the like have been cited in previous studies as being difficult to acquire and having a relatively low rate of correct identification (Tadashi Sakamoto (1998:499)). However, the survey data used in this analysis is based on short sentences of simple examples, and to the best of our knowledge, there are no previous studies using complex long sentences. In this study, we conducted a survey of long sentences of complex examples, such as doctoral dissertations and compositions written by intermediate and advanced level learners. The analysis revealed that the non-use of "ha" in contrastive subjects was found in learners of various native languages, which is characteristic of intermediate languages. In this presentation, I will also discuss how contrasts are expressed in Chinese, and point out that the non-use of "ha" by native speakers of Chinese is influenced by their mother tongue.
