Ah, thanks for clearing that bit with Komeh up. It was
tantalizing, to
say the least.
By the way, could someone explain to me why people
think that Japanese
is nonflexational? There seems to be more flexation in
Japanese than is
in English, IMO, at least, with the verbs. English
seems, with it's
word-transformation modifiers, much more agglutinating
than Japanese.
While Japanese is much more Regular, to say the least,
than English . .
-ta/te is NOT an agglutination. It would be if say,
Taberu became
Taberuta, but it doesn't, the entire word changes to
"tabeta" and the
even more flexational, -ku verbs which change to
-ita/te. Furthermore,
the passives, abilitatives and causatives all require
that the word
inflect to change or add the semantic change.
Abilitative: -u -> eru
Passive: -u -> -areru
Causative: -u -> -aseru
and so on and so forth.
I suppose the post-positional (particles) could all be
considered
agglutinating . . . but then . . . so is saying "in
the field" in
English. "Hatake ni" in Japanese.
