彼はこの駅に来るはずです。
- He is supposed to come to this station.

彼はこの駅に来るはずです。 meaning: He is supposed to come to this station.

The sentence follows a Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) structure, typical of Japanese. ⚫︎ The subject is 彼 (かれ) - he. ⚫︎ The object is implied; it's the station この駅 (このえき) - this station. ⚫︎ The verb phrase is 来るはずです (くるはずです) - is supposed to come.

The sentence uses the particle に to indicate the location toward which the action is directed. ⚫︎ The particle に marks the target of movement, often translated as "to" or "at." ⚫︎ In this case, この駅に (このえきに) means "to this station." ⚫︎ The particle へ is also sometimes used to indicate direction. ⚫︎ Both に and へ can be used in this context, but に is generally more common when the destination is a specific place.

はずです (hazudesu) is an auxiliary verb used to express a guess or expectation, meaning "is supposed to" or "is expected to." ⚫︎ It suggests a logical inference based on available information, not a definite certainty. ⚫︎ It combines with the plain form of a verb. In this sentence, 来る (くる) "to come" is in its plain form. ⚫︎ It adds a degree of uncertainty or probability to the sentence. ⚫︎ The present tense はずです implies the action is expected to happen. ⚫︎ The plain form of the verb "to come" is required here. ⚫︎ Other examples include 食べるはずです (たべるはずです) (is supposed to eat) and 行くはずです (いくはずです) (is supposed to go).

The verb 来る (くる) "to come" is in its plain form (also known as the dictionary form) before はずです. ⚫︎ The plain form is the base form of the verb, used in casual conversation and before certain grammatical structures. ⚫︎ Japanese verbs are conjugated to indicate tense, politeness, and other grammatical functions. ⚫︎ In this case, because the meaning of the sentence is in the present form, we use the plain form. ⚫︎ The plain form is also called "dictionary form" because it is the form found in the dictionary. ⚫︎ The plain form of verbs are used as follows: ⚫︎ Present Positive: 食べる (たべる) - to eat ⚫︎ Present Negative: 食べない (たべない) - not to eat ⚫︎ Past Positive: 食べた (たべた) - ate, has eaten ⚫︎ Past Negative: 食べなかった (たべなかった) - did not eat, had not eaten

この駅 (このえき) means "this station" and functions as an adverbial phrase, indicating the location. ⚫︎ この (kono) is a demonstrative adjective meaning "this." ⚫︎ 駅 (えき) means "station." ⚫︎ While the function is similar to an object, in Japanese, it is more commonly treated as an adverbial phrase modifying the verb.
