Opis

The aim of the study is to provide a typological description of the essential features of Japanese and a detailed analysis of selected problems this poses. They appear above all in connection with inflection categories, parts of speech, case marking, omission of phrase (sentence) members, personal reference, and verbal deixis. The central typological topics are morphological characterization (agglutination, analytic/synthetic, etc.), word order, case marking, head/dependent marking, and pro-drop. The study casts light on the systematic connections between these aspects of Japanese and gives a typologically coherent account of the language.
