本研究では、日本語母語話者がアラビア語で事象を描写する際、動詞や副詞をどのようにして選出す るかを実験の結果に基づいて考察した。また、標準アラビア語学習者とアラビア語母語話者とでは表現に違いがあるのか、あるとしたら、どのような違いなのかを検証した。日本語と標準アラビア語は、 まったく異なった言語体系を持つため、学習者は標準アラビア語で表現する際は母語である日本語の影響を受けることもあれば、標準アラビア語らしい表現を使うこともある。また、事象の様態を描写 する副詞についても、どのような表現の特徴が見られるかを検証した。
This study is aimed at investigating Arabic narration by native speakers of Japanese, primarily focusing on adverbial expressions used when they narrate the events in ‘The Frog Story’. First, the Arabic adverbial clauses are classified into three types based on morphosyntactic as well as functional differences. This is followed by the examination of the ways events are coded via adverbial expressions and verbs.
The first type of adverbial expression, called “noun/participle adverbs” in this paper, is constituted by a verb participle and affixes agreeing with the main clause subject in number and gender. The verb participle adverb does not carry tense. This kind of adverb describes an aspect of the situation designated by the main clause, specifying the details of the main event.
It turns out that Japanese learners of Arabic tend to use adverbs of this kind more often than native Arabic speakers do.
The second type, called “explicit subject adverbial clause”, consists of a conjunctive particle, a subject pronoun, and a verb. The verb is always imperfect, and the subject need not be coreferential with the main clause subject, which makes this type the most independent among the three. The results show that Japanese learners of Arabic tend to use this adverbial clause less often than native speakers do. This may be because they do not realize that the subject of the adverbial clause does not need to be coreferential with the main clause subject.
The third type, called “non-explicit subject adverbial clause”, consists of only a verb in the imperfect, and lacks a conjunctive particle and a pronominal subject. This kind of adverbial clause describes a situation or an event that has a causal relation with the main clause event. This kind is not found in the learners’ narration, which suggests that they do not even know that Arabic has this kind of clause.
