II.1.5 Descriptive Studies of Japanese Dialects
(Report 16, 1959. 368 pages)
These are descriptive studies of 15 dialects by 15
linguists; they give the phonology and the grammar, but
there is no treatment of the tone system. In the
grammatical description, stress is laid on the inflection of
verbs and adjectives and on the use of zyosi (particles).
The Institute asked its 47 local correspondents to submit
reports on one dialect in their area; 12 of these reports
were taken up in this volume, with three other reports
written by members of the Institute (marked by asterisks
below). The remaining 35 reports have not yet been
published.
