不同语言的从句中时态的行为是不一致的，时态解释理论试图解释这一点。补语从句中过去时和现在时的解释是一个众所周知的难题。语言在这方面有所不同，并相应地分为时态序列语言（如英语）和非时态序列语言（如日语）。在本文中，我们将主要关注时态从句的时态解释。我们将讨论Ogihara[1994,1996]提出的分析，并认为我们观察到的英语和日语TACs在时态分布上的差异不能解释为时态顺序的情况。
The behaviour of tense in subordinate clauses is not uniform across languages and theories that deal with the interpretation of tense try to explain this. The interpretation of past and present tense in complement clauses is one of the well known puzzles. Languages differ on this respect, and have been classified accordingly as sequence of tense languages (e.g. English) and non-sequence of tense languages (e.g. Japanese). In this paper we will be concerned mainly with the interpretation of tenses in temporal adjunct clauses (TACs). We will discuss the analysis proposed by Ogihara [1994, 1996] and argue that the differences in tense distribution that we observe between English and Japanese TACs are not to be explained as a case of sequence of tense.
