Second, the author offers the outline of the Japanese verb morphology and proposes that 13 inflectional suffixes should be recognized in the Japanese verb conjugation system. This analysis seems apparently inadequate since many suffixes that can take syntactic relations (modification and case government) as input are regarded as derivational ones. However, such syntactic derivations can be observed in English and neighboring languages as well, to a greater or lesser extent, and therefore they need not be regarded as exceptional. This view is supported by the idea that the extent to which the morphological rules or the syntactic ones are dominant differs from language to language. This paper also contends that the accent of all the verb conjugation forms can be best explained when they are derived from that of the Renyoo form as an underlying base. The author also dispels the concept of distinguishing between phonological and grammatical words. The so-called phonological words are merely phonological units, and word boundaries should be determined solely by morphological and syntactic properties.}, pages = {23--50}, title = {言語類型論から見た日本語の動詞形態法と統語的派生}, volume = {13}, year = {2022} }
