Grammatical Studies Workshops 1: “Problems of adjectives”

Posted：2011.05.28

This workshop is held as the first meeting of “Grammatical Studies Workshops.”
In Japanese, attributive notions are mainly categorized into “adjectives.”However, in not a few languages, these notions are categorized as verbs or nouns. In such cases, it is quite common that those verbs and nouns which describe attributive notions manifest grammatical idiosyncrasy. This workshop attempts to illustrate that idiosyncrasy from some notional perspectives as “(per-/con-)ception”, “attributive predication” and “temporality.”
