『吉利支丹抄物』の和語の仮名遣い

In this paper, we examined the characteristics of the kanadzukai of native Japanese words found in 'Kirisitan Shomotsu' by examining examples of verb conjugational endings and other forms, as well as instances that do not align with historical kanadzukai. The results are as follows. First, the conjugational endings for Ha-gyo Yodan verbs primarily use 'wa,' 'hi,' 'fu,' and 'he' (わ, ひ, ふ, へ). In contrast, in Kirishitan-edition vernacular religious texts, 'ha,' 'hi,' 'fu,' and 'he' (は, ひ, ふ, へ) are predominantly used. In 'Kirisitan Kogoroesho,' 'wa,' 'i,' 'hi,' 'fu,' and 'he' (わ, い, ひ, ふ, へ) are seen, and in 'Sagomoro no Chujo,' 'wa,' 'ha,' 'hi,' 'fu,' and 'he' (わ, は, ひ, ふ, へ) are primarily used, showing slight variations in their application. For Ha-gyo Shimonidan verbs, the conjugational endings primarily use the spellings 'he' (へ) and 'fu' (ふ). The Kirisitan-edition vernacular religious texts, 'Kirisitan Kogoroesho,' and 'Sagomoro no Chujo' all show the same usage as 'Kirisitan Shomotsu'. Looking at examples beyond verb conjugational endings, for the Wa-sound, the 'wa' (わ) spelling is primarily used. For the I-sound, 'i' (い) is used at the beginning of words, and 'hi' (ひ) is used in the middle or as a suffix; For the U-sound, 'u' (う) is used. For the E-sound, 'he' (へ) is used in the middle of a word or as a suffix; For the O-sound, 'o' (お) is used at the beginning of a word, and both 'o' (お) and 'wo' (を) are used in the middle of a word or as a suffix. In Kirisitan edition vernacular religious texts, for the I-sound: 'i' (い) spelling at the beginning of a word, 'hi' (ひ) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, for the U-sound: 'u' (う) spelling, and for the E-sound: 'he' (へ) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, all show the same tendency of usage as 'Kirisitan Shomotsu.' However, for the Wa-sound: 'ha' (は) spelling, and for the O-sound: 'o' (お) and 'wo' (を) spellings at the beginning of a word, and 'ho' (ほ) and 'wo' (を) spellings in the middle of a word or suffix, show different tendencies of usage. In 'Kirisitan Kogoroesho,' for the Wa-sound: 'wa' (わ) spelling, for the I-sound: 'i' (い) spelling at the beginning of a word, for the E-sound: 'he' (へ) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, and for the O-sound: 'o' (お) spelling at the beginning of a word, all show the same tendency of usage as 'Kirishitan Shomotsu.' However, for the I-sound: 'i' (い) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, and for the O-sound: 'ho' (ほ) and 'wo' (を) spellings in the middle of a word or suffix, show different tendencies compared to 'Kirisitan Shomotsu' In 'Sagomoro no Chujo,' for the I-sound: 'i' (い) spelling at the beginning of a word, for the E-sound: 'he' (へ) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, and for the O-sound: 'o' (お) spelling at the beginning of a word, all show the same tendency of usage as 'Kirisitan Shomotsu.' However, for the Wa-sound: 'ha' (は) and 'wa' (わ) spellings, for the I-sound: 'i' (い) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, and for the O-sound: 'ho' (ほ) spelling in the middle of a word or suffix, all show different pattems compared to 'Kirisitan Shomotsu'. By extracting examples from 'Kirisitan Shomotsu' where the kanadzukai of native Japanese words does not align with historical kanadzukai and comparing them to the kanadzukai of the Keichō edition 'Kanamoji dzukai,' it was found that the tendency was closer to the kanadzukai of 'Kirisitan Kogoroesho' and 'Sagomoro no Chujo,' rather than that of the Kirisitan edition vernacular religious texts.
