Converbal clauses combine with main clauses on the basis of a variety ofsemantic relationships. They are widely observed in many languages suchas Japanese and Russian. Mongolian is another converbal type of language,using a number of suffixes added to verb stems to form nonfinite clauses.The suffixes divide into two groups, depending an whether they can takean accusative subject. The purpose of this paper is to clearly explicatethe syntactic environments which allow the accusative subject to occurin them, investigating the following three syntactic combinations betweenthe converbals and the main clauses: simplex subordination, coordifiationand complex surbodinatiog. This explication demonstrates to us that theconverbals are not adverbial "clauses" as claimed in preceding works butare adverbial "phrases". The Mongolian converbal construction is not acomplex sentence consisting of two clauses but a simplex one containingtwo subjects like the nominative and the accusative.
