Research Abstract |
Nominal compounds (NCs) were studied from two points of view. 1. We compared the use frequency of NCs of each chapter of the articles that Japanese wrote in Inorganic Chemistry with those of the chemist from the English zone. The use frequency of NCs of both areas was approximately equal and we understood that the Japanese NCs use was appropriate. We examined also expression hidden in NCs. 2. We searched frequent appearance NCs used in the articles that the chemists of the English zone wrote in the Dalton Transactions, and then examined a use of NCs by PERC corpus. We find that the subordination word of NCs took the singular form, and that when "noun+noun" and "adjective+noun" took the same meaning, the former had a role to limit the meaning.
