Outline of Final Research Achievements

I investigate a Chinese classic sentence using cluster analysis, and this study is intended to clarify difference in character of the sentence (writing style).
For both books of "Kanjo" "Go-kanjo", I paid attention to adjunct peculiar to classical Chinese in particular this time and checked a correlation of the use and examined twinship, difference in sentence characteristics. Specifically, I each analyzed it about four characters of "焉" "矣" of the adjunct of adjunct "於" "于" with near character and the end of a sentence.
I understood that I could almost distinguish both books in conclusion when I analyzed the correlation of two characters of "焉" "矣" this time. Thus, as for the cluster analysis, it was suggested that it could become the effective means in sorting the sentence.
