Abstract

This paper attempts to consider syntactic sentence types in passive sentence shirareru, focus on correlation between structure types and morphological properties of passive verb. We classify types of passive sentence shirareru as A to C, and analyze properties of complement which has relevance to subject and features of agent. A① [hito-ga hito-ni N-wo shir-areru]　 　B [hito-ga hito-ni ∼to shir-areru] 　A② [hito-ga hito-ni N-wo shir-areru]:[kao-wo shir-areru][sonjai-wo shir-areru] 　C [hito-ga hito-ni ∼toshite/to shir-areru] A② and C are events by many unspecified people, it represents characterization of subject, meanwhile A① and B represents affectivity of subject from event. A① and C have different characteristics on morphological properties of V-rareru, specifically in type of modality and aspect that frequently appears. There are differences between these two types in grammatical functions. When shirareru appears in renyoke, they have differences in the contents of the main clause. Main clause of A① indicates undesirable condition for subject, whereas C indicates neutral description of subject. In rentaike, they have dissimilar features in semantic relation between modified noun and modifier clause. In shusike, A① collocates with modality frequently, while C appears frequently in the form of shir-are-teiru, or shir-rareru.
