Abstract

The purpose of this study is to clarify the characteristics, usage patterns, and features of sentence-ending expressions in different components of the introduction of Japanese articles. 100 articles, which recently submitted to the journal “Studies in Japanese Language” published by the Japanese Linguistic Society of Japan, are targeted for analysis. The classification of the components of the introduction was based on JeongA Lim(2020) and reclassified them into eight major components according to the contents of the introduction. After the classification, It is considered what the characteristic of the types of sentence-ending expressions used in each component, as well as the usage patterns and tendencies of each type of sentence-ending expression are. Main results of the analysis are as follows. ‘nonたseries’ was used more often than “たseries” in Japanese introductions, and The imperfect form of the verb were used most frequently among the detail categories. In the case of components that had the character of announcing the content of the body of the paper(presentation of the purpose of the research, explanation of the research method, and presentation of the structure of the paper), the majority used The imperfect form of the verb. It was also found that other elements of the same auxiliary verb were used differently depending on the constituent. For example, for ‘presentation of the research theme’, ‘れる・られる’ was used most frequently, for ‘the opinion of the author of the paper’, ‘The negative form of the verb + not’, for ‘presentation of the purpose of the research’, ‘たい’, and for ‘the significance of the paper’ , ‘う(だろう・よう)’was used most frequently. These results show that there are differences in the usage patterns and vocabulary of sentence-ending expressions depending on the content and function of the sentence.
