Outline of Final Research Achievements

Our research clarifies the differences of styles between four modes of Japanese sentences. Each of these modes are combination of a pair of exclusive modes: spoken/written, dialogue/monologue. We developed a method for acquiring sentences of such modes within which issues and stories are controlled.
Acquired data shows that on dialogue condition, the differences of styles between spoken and written sentences are smaller than those on monologue condition. These results imply that the traits of dialogue in which talker is prompted to make quick composition of sentence and to pay more attention to listener in front of him/her decrease spoken or written specific styles.
