Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study discusses the usage of the existential aspectual forms KANE AN, WA AN, and HINE AN in the Shizunai dialect of Ainu with comparisons to the Saru and Chitose dialects. The results show that KANE AN in the Shizunai dialect is sometimes equivalent to KANE AN as well as KOR AN in the Saru and Chitose dialects. For WA AN and HINE AN, non-aspectual usage was also found in the Shizunai dialect.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
アイヌ語北海道諸方言は大きく南西部と北東部に二分されるが、アイヌ語静内方言はその方言境界に位置するものであり、今回の比較検討の成果はアイヌ語の方言体系やアスペクト体系解明の一助となることが期待される。
