Outline of Final Research Achievements

First of all, I waz compared for the "SENJYAKUHONGAN-NENBUTSUSHU(選択本願念仏集)" which was writen by Hounen and "SENJYAKUHONGAN-NENBUTSUSHU-NOBEGAKI(選択本願念仏集延書)"which was writen by Shinran. As a result, it was found to compensate for the assertion of the auxiliary verb "Nari" as a characteristic example in 'NOBEGAKI'. On the other hand, a few while in the corresponding place as "也" character that is present in "SENJYAKUHONGAN-NENBUTSUSHU(選択本願念仏集)" is not observed in'NOBEGAKI'.
Then, the "SAMPOUEKOTOBA(三宝絵詞)", using the index that is published, and samples investigated the relationship of notation independent word of native Japanese words. As a result, the term multiple Chinese characters per word is not less than one percent, I was especially found that many in the verb. And picked up a word or phrase is a more distinctive same word(同訓)another Chinese characters(異字), what factor is what has appeared as a difference of notation, were studied.
