Phonemes सम्पादन

Major phonological changes are a characteristic of this period:

Whereas Old Japanese made 88 syllabic distinctions, Late Old reduces that count to 66.

a i u e o
ka ki ku ke ko
ga gi gu ge go
sa si su se so
za zi zu ze zo
ta ti tu te to
da di du de do
na ni nu ne no
ha hi hu he ho
ba bi bu be bo
ma mi mu me mo
ya   yu   yo
ra ri ru re ro
wa wi   we  

The most prominent difference is the loss of Jōdai Tokushu Kanazukai, which distinguished between two types of -i, -e, and -o. While the beginnings of this loss can already be seen at the end of Old Japanese, it is completely lost early in Late Old Japanese. The final phonemes to be lost are /ko1/ and /ko2/.

During the 10th century, /e/ and /ye/ merge into /e/ while /o/ and /wo/ merge into /o/ by the 11th century.[१][२][३]

Verbs सम्पादन

Late Old Japanese inherits all eight verbal conjugations from Old Japanese and adds one new one: Lower Monograde (下一段).

Consonant / Vowel Stem सम्पादन

Verbs having a base that ends in a consonant are known as consonant-stem. These are exhibited by the following conjugation classes: Quadrigrade, Upper Bigrade, Lower Monograde, Lower Bigrade, S-irregular, R-irregular, K-irregular, and N-irregular.

Verbs having a base that ends in a vowel are known as vowel-stem. These are exhibited by the following conjugation classes: Upper Monograde.

Irregular Verbs सम्पादन

There are several verbs with irregular conjugations.

  • K-irregular: k- "come"
  • S-irregular: s- "do"
  • N-irregular: sin- "die", in- "go, die"
  • R-irregular: ar- "be, exist", wor- "be, exist"

The conjugation class for each is named after the final stem consonant.

Adjectives सम्पादन

There were two types of adjectives: regular adjectives and adjectival nouns.

The regular adjective is sub-classified into two types: those where the adverbial form (連用形) ends in -ku and those that end in –siku. This creates two different types of conjugations:

Adjective Class Irrealis
未然形
Adverbial
連用形
Conclusive
終止形
Attributive
連体形
Realis
已然形
Imperative
命令形
-ku   -ku -si -ki -kere  
-kara -kari -si -karu   -kare
-siku   -siku -si -siki -sikere  
-sikara -sikari -si -sikaru   -sikare

The -kar- and -sikar- forms are derived from the verb ar- "be, exists". The adverbial conjugation (-ku or -siku) is suffixed with ar-. The conjugation yields to the R-irregular conjugation of ar-. The resulting -ua- elides into -a-.

The adjectival noun retains the original nar- conjugation and adds a new tar-:

Type Irrealis
未然形
Adverbial
連用形
Conclusive
終止形
Attributive
連体形
Realis
已然形
Imperative
命令形
Nar- -nara -nari
-ni
-nari -naru -nare -nare
Tar- -tara -tari
-to
-tari -taru -tare -tare

The nar- and tar- forms share a common etymology. The nar- form is a contraction of case particle ni and r-irregular verb ar- "is, be": ni + ar- > nar-. The tar- form is a contraction of case particle to and r-irregular verb ar- "is, be": to + ar- > tar-. Both derive their conjugations from the verb ar-.

Writing system सम्पादन

Late Old Japanese was written in three different ways. It was first recorded in Man'yōgana, Chinese characters used as a phonetic transcription as in Early Old Japanese. This usage later produced the hiragana and katakana syllabic scripts which were derived from simplifications of the original Chinese characters.
