tikeya[at]shoin.ac.jp The Function of Quotation Form -tte as Sentence-final Particle Tomoko IKEYA Kobe Shoin Women s University Institute of Linguistic Sciences Abstract 1. emphasis 2. Speaker s impressions 3. Monologue While it is widely accepted that the form of -tte in spoken Japanese is an expression for quoting what another person has said, there are some cases where this rule does not apply. When the form -tte is used at the end of a sentence, different usages have been observed since there is no preceding speech to quote. For examples: 1. Emphasis: Kono fuku, zettai anata ni niau tte (This shirt suits you nicely, I really mean it!) Theoretical and Applied Linguistics at Kobe Shoin, No. 21, 41 69, 2018. No. 21, 41 69, 2018.
42 Theoretical and Applied Linguistics at Kobe Shoin No. 21, 2018 2. Speaker s Impressions: Otona wo miteru to, shigoto wa taihen nandana tte (Observing adults teaches me that doing one s work is never easy, as it is difficult to get the job done well.) 3. Monologue: Ore no shigoto, ubai yaga tte (Damn it! They took my job.) In this study, the author considers that the variants mentioned above represent information from the personalized domain of the speaker. This assumption enables us to give a more comprehensive explanation for the usage of -tte as a sentence-final particle, where previous studies find difficulty in treating it as quotation. This study also claims that various pragmatic interactions are generated between the speaker and listener by expressing information from the personalized domain of the speaker, and these interactions develop into a form with particular meaning and function. :,,,, Key Words: tte, quotation form, theory of the territory of information, information from the personalized domain of the speaker, sentence-final particles 1. 1998:pp.231-233 N N (1) (2) A: B: (3) N N N N N A V( ) (1) WHO (2) (3) (4)
