| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
According to common view, written language conveys general knowledge to distant receivers by a complex and dense text structure, whereas spoken language, consisting of a simple and fragmented structure of sound, fits well with conveying personal experiences in on-line multi-modal interaction. Quite contrary to this common idea (structural aspect, inter alia), Modern Japanese spoken language often has complex structures. This project aims to build a foundation to understand this phenomenon.
In conclusion it is shown as the key idea that the conception “word” is pan-modular connected with phonology, morphology, and word classes. Moreover it is also shown that the very nature of mimetic is pragmatic (i.e. performative) rather than vivid semantics and iconic relationship between meaning and form.
