          I.  Mama expresses an idea similar to -ppanashi. In fact; -ppanashi can be
             rephrased as mama in most cases when the preceding verb is transitive,
             as in [I].

             action described by a punctual verb) while -ppanashi focuses on a con-
             tinuous action.
