It was pointed out that Dakara is a logical connective. But dakara has a wider range of use. Therefore, its function cannot be explained by the logical connection. Dakara is a Japanese discourse connective. This paper claims the following points. (1) Dakara is not used between two statements. Dakara as a discourse connective is on the statement following dakara.
