The purpose of this article is to consider the distribution of the three conditional forms in Japanese: reba, tara and nara. Comrie (1985) claims that a given construction should be identified in terms of prototype rather than in terms of necessary-and-sufficient conditions. Dancygier (1993) classifies the conditionals into two types: predictive conditional and non predictive conditional. The former type is treated as typical conditional sentence.
