<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">And it is only in this exchange that I realize that German
<i>Mal</i> 'time (in the sense of the French <i>fois</i>)' can be used in a somewhat similar way, in the combination
<i>zumal</i> (= <i>zu Mal</i>):<br>
<br>
<i>Ich werde gehen, zumal du so früh gekommen bist.</i><br>
'I'll be leaving, as you came so early.'<br>
<br>
Maybe German also borrowed this from French in one way or another. (But note that
<i>zumal</i> only means '(in as much) as', i.e. it only has a causal sense.)<br>
<br>
(There are so many similarities among European languages that seem to be due to borrowing in one way or another...)<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">But is the French "Une fois que" not somewhat similar to Russian in this respect, in that it is not (only) used in the sense "as soon as" but also to introduce subordinate clauses of cause? (And maybe English, too, once we're on this).
In fact, it would be good to check whether the Russian construction is not a 19th century pattern copy from French.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">I did not mention English and other European languages because in Mandarin and the other Hmong-Mien languages I mentioned before, the second clause appears with another linker (lit.
<i>on(c)e</i>........'(<i>and</i>) <i>then</i>'). Accordingly, these languages show some sort of correlative construction. Based on the languages of the sample, this usage of 'on(c)e' in a correlative construction is not common cross-linguistically. It seems
that Hmong-Mien languages have copied this strategy with native material from Mandarin. This is some sort of 'pattern replication'. I was expecting to receive more answers concerned with languages spoken in this area in order to see if these languages have
also copied this pattern from Mandarin.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
