| Research Abstract |
Two-mora noun-adjectives of different word accent types were chosen for the analysis. Negative sentences and affirmative sentences, both realized as noun-adjective+zyanai(falling intonation) were acoustically analyzed to find pitch pattern characteristic to each usage. Negative sentences can be prosodically analyzed as noun-adjective-zya+nai, whereas affirmative sentences are noun-adjective+zyanai. In the negative sentences made up of noun-adjective-zya+nai, both the preceding noun-adjective and the negative element nai keep their word accent. Whereas in the negative form of verbs nai loses its word accent, nai in the negative form of noun-adjective is prosodically more independent.
This finding gives prosodic basis for categorizing nai in the negative form of verbs as auxiliary on the one hand, and nai in the negative form of adjectives, noun-adjectives, and nouns as adjective on the other.
