ピア・レスポンスにおいて提案をする際の発話の分析 － 日本語学習者と日本語母語話者の違いに着目して －

Abstract

The purposes of this study are to analyze how Japanese language learners and Japanese native speakers utter suggestions to the compositions of peers in peer response, to explore the differences between the suggestion utterances by Japanese language learners and the suggestion utterances by Japanese native speakers, and to find out what kind of guidance about the suggestion utterances teachers should give to Japanese language learners. The results of the analysis show that the expressions for suggestions used by Japanese language learners are “tahogaii-njanai” and “tarado-desuka.” They also show that the expressions used by Japanese native speakers are “taraii-njanai,” “baii-njanai,” “tahogaii-kamoshirenai,” and “temoii-nokanatteomoimasu”. The research found that both Japanese language learners and Japanese native speakers used “njanai” and “njanai” weakened the extent of the suggestions. It is assumed that ‘tahougaii-kamosirenai’ reduce the speaker's coercion than using only ‘tahougaii’ by co-occurring ‘tahougaii’ with ‘kamosirenai’, which indicates a possibility. Also, “temoii” is an expression of permission with a speaker's weaker coercive force. Therefore, it is shown that Japanese native speakers use more expressions with less speaker coercive force in their suggestions during peer response than Japanese language learners. The above analysis suggests that in addition to teaching Japanese language learners “tahogaii” and “tarado-desuka” as the expressions for suggestion in peer response, it is significant to add “njanai” and “kamoshirenai” to ‘tahougaii’ and use “temoiinokanatoomoimasu” when teaching them to enrich the expressions that weaken the coercive force of suggestions.
