In particular, it seeks to determine whether or not pitch accent is a salient feature across language boundaries. An experiment was conducted to compare the correct perception of Japanese pitch accent by native speakers of three pitch-accent languages (Punjabi, Serbo-Croatian, and Swedish) and three stress-accent languages (English, Russian, and Samoan). For several reasons, this study employed the Kyoto dialect of Japanese, rather than the Tokyo dialect. The experiment - conducted either in person or via the Internet - was unable to refute the null hypothesis that neither pitch-accent speakers nor stress-accent speakers would be more successful at accurately perceiving Japanese pitch accent. However, a statistical analysis employing ANOVA revealed that there was a significant correlation between accent category of the Japanese test items and the subjects' performance, regardless of native language. x, 89 leaves Thu, 01 May 2003 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10125/7107 2003-05-01T00:00:00Z Lanz, Linda A http://hdl.handle.net/10125/7073 v, 88 leaves Sun, 01 Dec 2002 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10125/7073 2002-12-01T00:00:00Z Hisamoto, Mayumi http://hdl.handle.net/10125/3070 I offer evidence from a variety of fields in order to strengthen the hypothesis that Japonic and Korean are linguistically genetically related to one another. Non-linguistic evidence supports the hypothesis that the Japonic language was introduced into the Japanese Archipelago approximately 2,500 years ago over a thousand year period, where a culturally and technologically advanced group began migrating into the Japanese Archipelago from the Korean Peninsula through Northern Kyushu. A constant and steady influx of Continental culture, language, and people, resulted in the near-complete extinction of the original language. The linguistic evidence comes from Middle Korean texts, written in the Silla-descended language of the 15th century-the kingdom that overwhelmed the Puyo, Koguryo, and Paekche territory and languages, thought to be more closely related to Japonic-and 8th century Old Japanese texts. I hypothesize that there were two "thalossocracies": one with lzumo and Silla, and the second with Yamato and Paekche/Kaya Japonic elements were incorporated into the Silla language when Silla folded Kaya and Paekche into the new kingdom. In the same way, Yamato incorporated Silla-type elements into itself when Yamato overtook Izumo. I introduce evidence that supports Serafim's Labiovelar hypothesis; i.e. MK k : OJ p, reconstructing PKJ *kw1. I also found a "reverse" correspondence set: that is, MKp : OJ k, for which I reconstruct *kw2. I hypothesize that this reverse correspondence is due to dialect borrowing. When Silla conquered the Korean Peninsula, it incorporated into itself Kaya, Paekche, and Koguryo, which were closer in genetic relationship to Japonic, and therefore would have (*kw > ) p. As these three languages were overcome, dialect borrowing likely occurred, which means that words with p instead of (*kw > ) k were borrowed into Silla, sometimes replacing and sometimes forming doublets with words retaining k. The second posited case of dialect borrowing occurred when Yamato overtook lzumo; since Silla had close contact with lzumo, words with (*kw > ) k were borrowed into Yamato, replacing, and sometimes forming doublets with, some words with p. Further research will surely lead to more understanding of the measurable effects of dialect borrowing and Proto-Koreo-Japonic. Thesis (Ph.

Thus, the present study contributes to the already existing literature on study abroad, negotiation, and communication strategies. Moreover, it shows how NNS participation in the process of negotiation including exposure to and possible uptake of information about the target language is conveyed through negotiation and how this process differs between the classroom and host family setting. *N5-NNS (native speaker- non-native speaker) Thesis (Ph.

Instead of presenting literary representations of prevailing Meiji ideological positions such as risshin shusse (rising in the world) entrepreneurism and success scenarios for men or ryosai kenbo (good wives, wise mothers) domestic scenarios for women. Soseki focuses on erotic triangles which expose gender difference and gender inequalities of Meiji-Taisho Japan. Investigation of fictional erotic triangles also reveals the possibility of homosocial desire in an age when discourse was increasingly antithetical to non-normative expressions of male-male desire. Soseki's gender representations frequently invert conventional gender expectations with his depictions of passive males and women desiring mastery over the male, and these depictions in turn are mapped and analyzed throughout the novelist's brief ten-year career as a novelist. Foucault's observation of the body-where local social practices are linked up with organization of power-assists in our better comprehending the formation of gender identities and the development of a national subject. Always embodying a historical moment, Soseki's novels open a window onto gender conflict, further the historicization of gender concepts, and finally suggest the possibility, in some cases, of resistance to gender/role stereotyping, as well as narrativize the author's personal ambivalence toward Western egalitarianism of the sexes.
