  • Research on Phraseology across Continents
    Inoue AI (ContributorA phraseological approach to understanding the function of a new correlative conjunction observed in contemporary English - though A but B)University of Bialystok Publishing House 2014/02 9788374313834 441 79-96 
    This study describes in detail the new function of though A but B, a new correlative conjunction used in present-day English adopting a phraseological approach. According to the previous research on though, it functions as a subordinating conjunction and is defined as “used like ‘but’ to add a fact or opinion that makes what you have just said seem less definite, less important etc,” as in I thought he’s been drinking, though I wasn’t completely sure (LDCE5). However, the difference between though and but is that though is used to add new information to old information like The test was difficult, though fair (LAAD2), while but is used to correct the previous sentence as in She tried to finish the paper, but she couldn’t and to add surprisingly new information to a proposition (It’s an old car, but it’s reliable (LDCE5)). Further, but functions as a coordinating subordination. This leads us to believe that though and but function as a copulative conjunction but that but has its own function, that is of an adversary. Data obtained from corpora revealed that there are some examples of the phrase though A but B in contemporary English, as in .... I thought I might have a brain tumor. But it’s something I can live with. I always say too though that I may have MS but MS does not have me and I think that is the key for my success in whatever I’ve got ... (Larry King Live, 28 April, 2002, underlined by the author). On investigating the previous research on though and but, I found that there is no conclusive research on the explanation of though A but B. Resulting from the examples of though A but B, the phrase though A but B has a new surprise function, that is of copulative, by blending the functions of though and but. Further, though A but B functions as a correlative conjunction, such as not only A but also B, neither A nor B, etc.. I can conclude that the concept of analogy can explain the establishment of a new phrase though A but B. With regard to though A but B, semantically similar words though and but affect each other’s functions. This study also clarifies why two similar words are repeatedly used. This can be explained by a redundancy of the principle of linguistic economy, which functions to avert ambiguity.

    This corpus-based study investigated the linguistic phenomena of prepositional changes in phrases consisting of [preposition + noun] (e.g., by accident -> on accident, on purpose -> by purpose, etc.), which are usually considered irregularities or errors, being overlooked or termed unacceptable in current linguistic theory, recognized rules, and previous linguistic study. These linguistic phenomena are generally noted in the outermost circle of the three-circle model of world Englishes that was proposed by Kachru (1985) but are gradually becoming recognized in the language production of native English speakers, i.e., in inner circle Englishes, based on data obtained from corpora (English-corpora.org). This study adopts a semantically oriented approach combined with the corpus pattern analysis proposed by Hanks (2004, 2013) as its research method. The corpora data provide the following results: (i) by error has the function [− deliberately]; it is formed by blending with by mistake/accident; (ii) on accident has the function [± deliberately] and is used in the pattern [not + verbs with negative meanings (e.g., shoot down, hurt, kill, etc.) + on accident] due to a blend with the expression on purpose; (iii) by purpose has the function [+ deliberately], and it is used in the pattern [by accident or by purpose]. This expression is formed by blending, drawing on the antonymous phrase by accident/chance; (iv) in purpose is used in the pattern [do something in purpose] with the function [+ deliberately]. The results indicate that in phrases, the function of analogy works not only in the cases of semantically similar words and phrases but also in antonymous ones. Finally, the paper concludes that commonly used phrases are established as a result of an intersection between variation and modification in existing phrases, and it seems clear that the boundaries of the three-circle model of World English are changing.
  • Is blue inexperience or melancholy? - Cultural differences in Japanese and English color expressions and the challenges of learning them  [Invited]
    Ai Inoue
    14th International Symposium Intercontinental Dialogue on Phraseology Colour Terms in Phraseology: a linguo-cultural perspective  2025/03  Keynote oral presentation  University of Bialystok  The University of Bialystok, Philological Department, International Center for Phraseological and Paremiological Research, Poland
     
    This paper explores the differences in meaning between Japanese and English expressions that use colors (blue, red, black, white, yellow, and green) and examines the cultural and historical factors underlying these differences. While some color expressions share similar meanings in both languages, others reflect unique cultural perspectives, making direct translation difficult. This study also analyzes the challenges Japanese English learners (JELs) face in acquiring and using these expressions, as their meanings often extend beyond literal interpretations. Since direct translation frequently fails to convey the intended nuances, understanding these subtle differences is crucial for JELs to achieve fluency and cultural competence in English. However, existing English-Japanese dictionaries commonly used by JELs do not provide sufficient explanations of these distinctions, nor do they offer adequate cultural and social context. To address this gap, this paper proposes improving dictionary descriptions and incorporating more contextual information to enhance JELs’ comprehension and overall English proficiency.

  • Introduction to a newly published English-Japanese phraseological dictionary and its potential application among Japanese English learners  [Not invited]

    This paper describes an English–Japanese phraseological dictionary published in 2024 and describes its potential use in English language education for Japanese English learners (JELs). The established study of English phraseology in Japan dates back to the early 20th century. Since that time, almost all dictionaries, such as general-purpose learner-oriented dictionaries, have focused on providing information on English words, with examples of the use of the words in certain phrases. The phrases thus provided are generally unsatisfactory in terms of their quality and quantity. With the advent of computerized corpora, however, phraseology has come to the fore. As a result, the description of English phrases in dictionaries has been greatly improved. However, there is still scope for improvement. Therefore, I have attempted to accurately describe the appearance of phrases in the phraseological dictionary discussed in this paper. I selected 200 high-frequency words found in spoken and written English from Longman Communication 3000 (a list of commonly used English words drawn from the Longman Corpus Network of 390 million words). Phrases created using the 200 words can be found in the publicly available corpus. In this paper, I describe the phrases made using the 200 words in detail as shown in (1). (1) a. the typical words the phrase contains b. the grammatical patterns the phrase adopts c. the meanings with which the phrase is associated d. the register of the phrase JELs, like learners in other contexts, are increasingly moving away from the use of dictionaries. The phraseological dictionary discussed in this paper is unique and could serve as a stepping stone for the introduction of a novel phraseological approach to English language education in Japan.

    This study proposes which separate descriptions or pulled-together descriptions, of semantically similar constructions, are better for English–Japanese dictionary learners (EJDLs.). Corpora have made it possible to describe the detailed information of phraseological units in EJDLs under the entry of the main component. This means that each phraseological unit is described separately in EJDLs, but not as a cross-reference, although it is semantically similar to a phraseological unit. This study aims to show the pulled-together description of a newly observed construction with a causative use [make O to do], [have O do], [let O do], and [get O to do] whose semantic interpretations are given priority over grammatical correctness based on the data obtained from corpora and the corpus pattern analysis research method. Numerous studies have regarded the construction [make O to do] (e.g., * There are several points which made me to think so.) as unacceptable. However, corpora data show that the construction [make O to do] is observed in both spoken and written English (e.g., He finally chose the third option because the first option would make him to lose his pension right. (COCA, 2006, ACAD)). Research has demonstrated that the newly observed construction [make O to do] implies a weaker causative than the original construction and that it is formed by an analogy of the construction [get O to do]. Also, the other constructions—[have O to do], [let O to do], and [get O do]—are observed in the corpora; they are semantically different from the original constructions. When the original constructions change, the compelling forces that they have become weakened. These findings demonstrate that the pulled-together descriptions of newly observed constructions are user-friendly, especially for beginner-level English–Japanese learners.

    The study aims to investigate the actual manners of a newly observed construction with a causative use [make O to do] derived from [make O do], whose semantic interpretation is given priority over grammatical correctness. To put it differently, the study argues that the essential quality of communication is not to adhere to grammatical correctness and prescriptive grammar but to convey a meaning on a top-priority basis and that syntactic patterns are the mirror of semantic features. Numerous studies have regarded the constructions [make O to do] and [make O to be] shown in (1) as unacceptable. However, data obtained from contemporary English corpora show that the constructions are observed in both spoken and written English shown in (2) (italicised by the author. Same as following.). The constructions have not been fully explored as far as I have investigated. (1) a. *There are several points which made me to think so. (Macmillan English Dictionary, 2nd edition) b. *That will make it be more popular. (ibid.) (2) a. He finally chose the third option because, the first option would make him to lose his pension right. (COCA, 2006, ACAD) b. That will hurt her feeling. You need to make her to be your number one. If you see a hot girl, just keep it to yourself, don’t tell it out. (COCA, 2012, Blog) In addition to the original constructions [make O do] and [make O be], there are constructions showing causative usage such as [have O do], [let O do], and [get O to do]. Similar to [make O to do] and [make O to be], some original constructions evolve new ones. I adopt simple and widespread research methods, meanings and syntactic patterns are closely related, which has been proposed by Sinclair (1987), etc., and corpus pattern analysis (CPA). My findings demonstrate that newly observed constructions [make O to do] and [make O to be] imply a weaker causative than the original constructions and that they are formed by the analogy of the construction [get O to do]. Also, the constructions [have O to do], [let O to do], and [get O do] are observed in the corpora and they are semantically different from the original constructions. When the original constructions change, the compelling forces that they have become weakened. These findings will help to better understand that new linguistic phenomena, although they have been regarded as a mistake, can be accountable when the emphasis is put on semantics. Rules or linguistic theories can account for the limited linguistic phenomena, but it is possible to explain linguistic unrestricted behaviours based on this semantic-centered perspective.

    This study aims to make descriptions of phrases in English–Japanese dictionaries for learners (EJDLs) fruitful and, from phraseological and lexicographical perspectives, to enhance the English proficiency of Japanese English learners (JELs). English education in Japan has engaged in various efforts to improve JELs’ English proficiency. A background factor is that approximately 80% of JELs have scored at level A (Basic user) of the Common European Framework for References for Languages: learning, teaching, assessment, and non-compulsory English examination results were announced as “poor” in 2021. In fact, every time such a sad situation has been revealed, English education in Japan has proposed a wide variety of pedagogical approaches, but none has proven effective and decisive. At the moment, moreover, no pedagogical approach focuses attention on and specializes in phrases. In 1909, English phraseology in Japan initiated a phraseological dictionary titled A Dictionary of English Phrases（『英和雙解熟語⼤辭典』）in 1909 edited by Naibu Kanda and Tsunetaro Nannichi. Phraseological dictionaries and EJDLs mainly describe idioms and collocations but, so far, they have not always explained cutting-edge phraseological research results. However, English phraseology in Japan began to garner attention at the beginning of the 2000s, thanks to advancement of computer-corpora and research on phraseology, like that of Cowie (1999), for instance. Then after the 2000s, many EJDLs attempted to describe phrases but were insufficient from a qualitative perspective. Phrases in EJDLs are classified into four types: old-fashioned, obsolete, mistaken, and lacking Englishness (i.e., rain cats and dogs, it isn’t over until the fat lady sings, train of thought). Therefore, this corpus-based research reviews, culls, and corrects phrases described in EJDLs.
  • Idiom variant observed in present-day English: Systematic or Creative?  [Not invited]
    Ai Inoue
    The 9th Biennial International Conference on the Linguistics of Contemporary English (BICLCE9)  2022/09  Oral presentation  University of Ljubljana 
    Idiom variants (IVs) such as only the peak of an iceberg (originally used as only the tip of an iceberg) are vital to understanding what is happening to idioms, one of the research fields in phraseology. However, the previously published research has shown that idioms are generally defined as word-combinations, whose whole meanings cannot be deduced from the sum of each component and whose components cannot be replaced with words. According to the definition, previous studies have merely introduced IVs or have discussed which component can be replaced with a word from a morphological standpoint (Cserép 2017a, b, Moon 1998, Szcezepaniak 2006). Few studies have investigated whether IVs are systematically or creatively formed. Here I present the following four points adopting a descriptive approach (i.e., corpus pattern analysis): (1) to introduce IVs in various irrelevant domains such as sea, anger, and playing cards and explain their semantic features, (2) to make it clear how IVs semantically expands from original idioms, (3) to explain rules or process to produce IVs, and (4) to establish a boundary between idioms which transform IVs and those which do not. It was found that idioms change into IVs on certain rules and processes. Interestingly, some IVs develop their own semantic and syntactic features, which are different from those of an original idiom, but others still have same semantic and syntactic features with an original idiom in spite of the fact that the lexical replacements of a component in an original idiom are undergone. Semantically difficult idioms to understand never alter IVs. The results suggest that idioms systematically transform IVs. These findings of this study are indeed useful for researchers to understand that idioms cannot arbitrarily change, thereby contributing to grasping what is happening to phraseology.
  • Phraseological cleansing: Creating a Dictionary for Japanese English Learners  [Not invited]

    This paper introduces a new English–Japanese phraseological dictionary and explains its aim, purpose, and background in detail. Japan was introduced to English phraseology at the very beginning of the 20th century in a dictionary entitled 『英和雙解熟語大辭典』(A Dictionary of English Phrases, edited by Naibu Kanda and Tsunetaro Nannichi in 1909). Such dictionaries have evolved through trial and error over time; however, they have a number of drawbacks. First, English–Japanese dictionaries solely devoted to phraseology have not been actively published because English–Japanese dictionaries for learners (EJDLs) have played a prominent role in describing the phraseological information of vocabularies. In fact, a limited number of collocation dictionaries and discourse particles’ dictionaries that emulate the features of phraseological dictionaries published in western countries have been published in Japan. Second, English phraseology is not clearly defined and explained in EJDLs, so phraseological subcategories vary from one dictionary to another. Moreover, phraseological descriptions in EJDLs are sometimes far from correct because they are old-fashioned or obsolete. These drawbacks reveal that EJDLs may be quantitatively and qualitatively insufficient and unsuitable to promote the English proficiencies of Japanese English learners. Therefore, this study minutely cleanses phraseological descriptions in EJDLs. Then, it chooses inevitable phraseological units to learn for JELs. Moreover, the accurate phraseological descriptions for JELs are revealed from the data obtained from large-scale corpora well-suited for dictionary-making.

  • Translanguaging and phrase-based practices in English language education for Japanese college students
    Ai Inoue
    Beyond Multilingualism - Translanguaging in Education  2021/11  Oral presentation  University of Basel, Institute for Educational Science  University of Basel, Institute for Educational Science
     
    This study shows the effectiveness of translanguaging and phrase-based practices in English language education for Japanese English learners (JELs). English education in Japan has traditionally and excessively put an emphasis on learning English grammar and has considered that it has been wrong to use a native language (i.e. Japanese) in a language class with the aim of putting an emphasis on improving communicative competence in English. Due to this, it is widely acknowledged that the low English proficiency of JELs needs immediate improvement. Ikuo Koike’s research from 2004 to 2008 found that 80% of JELs are in the Level A (Basic User) category of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). Especially, the written and spoken English of JELs somewhat lacks in authenticity. Hence, JELs can be hesitant to write and speak English although they convince themselves that they have to write and speak English as native speakers of English do. Also, they tend to put excessive pressure on themselves when they write and speak English. To improve the situation in Japan, this study introduces a book entitled Phrase-based English Learning: Aiming for an Asset on a Global Stage adopting translanguaging and phrase-based English education for JELs and tries to examine how translanguaging and phrase-based practices can contribute to the English proficiency of JELs. In all, 50 college JELs (with Test of English for International Communication scores between 450 and 600) responded positively to the book, achieving higher scores in the four quizzes (13.5 out of 20 points). On the other hand, they said that when an English-only book was used in class, they became less motivated and it took a long time to understand and use certain words and phrases. Moreover, they obtained low scores in four different quizzes (10.7 out of 20 points).
  • A large-scale corpora investigation into English idiom variants in the domain of anger  [Not invited]

    This study is part of a large phraseological project to find the regularities of how idiom variants are formed. As significant research on idioms has been conducted, idioms’ definitions and targeted idioms vary by study. This study defines idioms as a fixed unit that is semantically opaque or metaphorical or traditionally not the sum of its parts, based on Moon (1998), Fernando and Flavell (1981), and Cowie (1988). Moon (1998: 120ff.) mentions that corpus data show English idioms’ forms are often unstable and introduce their lexical variations or strongly institutionalised transformations despite fixedness being a key property of English idioms. Notably, some English idioms are more fixed than others, and some such as take place do not vary at all; however, variation is highly widespread in English idioms. For example, Inoue (2018) shows that semantically similar idioms and phrasal verbs, for example, take care of, look after, and care for, are blended into the variants take care for, take care about, and care of, respectively, which merge the verbal function of care and the substantial function of care by using a corpus-based approach. Inoue (2018) concludes that care remains in the variants, changing its part of speech, because care is the most important component in them. Also, Inoue (2019) quantitatively and qualitatively demonstrates the transition from the traditional, transitive usage of the existing collocation, make somebody angry/mad to the intransitive utilisation of a collocation, make angry/mad. Inoue (2018, 2019) reveal that existing linguistic theories and rules account only for a small part of English usage, most of which evidences numerous uses beyond normative theories and rules. From a phraseological perspective, it is safe to assert that resurgent or newly observed idioms or collocations formed by semantically similar idioms or collocations become ubiquitous regardless of their grammatical functions. However, a drawback is observed in Inoue (2018, 2019) and other research on idiom variants: they did not explain how idiom variants were formed. Other than the variation in English idioms, Clausén (1996) reports idiom variants with respect to Swedish, and Cignoni and Coffey (1995) with respect to Italian. No persuasive research on how idiom variants are formed has been conducted. Thus, this study aims to show if idiom variants are not arbitrarily formed by drawing data from databases of tens of millions of words such as Davies (2018), BNC, and WordBanksOnline. There are several colourful idioms that mean that someone has become very angry and lost control in English such as blow a fuse, hit the roof, lose your rag, have/throw a fit, lose one’s temper, etc. This study focuses on these commonly used idioms and then demonstrates the variants of the idioms within the framework of Corpus Pattern Analysis (i.e., sound empirical footing). The data reveal that idiom variants are classified into two types: The first includes those formed due to only syntactic replacements (i.e., replaced by synonymous components) without causing any semantic change to the original idioms. The idiom variants belonging to this type can be subdivided on the basis of the syntactic ways in which idioms vary. The second comprises semantically different idioms variants from original idioms due to the synonymous alternation of a component. This study also aims to explain a subconsciously used principle that helps form idiom variants.

    Referring to phenomena in contemporary English and based on corpus pattern analysis (CPA), this paper aims to demonstrate multi-word expressions’ (MWEs’, i.e., phraseological units’) descriptions in English–Japanese dictionaries for learners (EJDLs). My investigation so far has discovered no published EJDLs perfect in their English phraseology. In fact, they have the following common quantitative and qualitative phraseological problems: (i) the need to review and correct already included MWEs, because some seem old-fashioned, obsolete, and far from correct, and (ii) the need to add newly observed MWEs because finding that a known MWE is neither included nor explained in EJDLs (e.g., keep somebody in the loop, until to (Inoue 2011), the way how (Inoue 2017)) is not surprising. If these two problems are remedied, MWEs in EJDLs would be enhanced both quantitatively and qualitatively. The foremost solution for (i) and (ii) is to reach consensus on a clear definition of MWEs, because EJDLs’ definitions of MWEs differ from dictionary to dictionary. Some EJDLs regard a word-combination as an MWE but others do not. The solution for (i) is thus to describe MWEs as they are really used, adopting CPA, although this task would be laborious. The solution for (ii) is to find newly observed MWEs by reading books, articles, etc. and then investigating those MWEs’ syntactic and semantic features through CPA. This study begins by defining MWEs and investigating their current situations in well-known EJDLs. Then, the study includes problematic descriptions of MWEs in EJDLs (i.e. (i) and (ii)), along with better and correct MWE descriptions suitable for Japanese English learners. Additionally, the study screens MWEs to find essential and useful ones referring to idioms, collocations, and phrasal verbs in the dictionaries published so far.

    This paper describes a corpus pattern analysis (CPA) approach to analysing idiom changes in English. The literature has generally defined an idiom as fixed and semantically opaque or metaphorical, or traditionally not the sum of its parts. However, CPA demonstrates that know/find the ropes is the semantic derivation of a well-known idiom, learn the ropes. Bybee (2015) mentions that language changes; thus, unsurprisingly, a part of language, idioms, can also change. As a part of phraseological research, this study explains a subconsciously used principle that helps form idiom variants in the domain of sailing. The data obtained from corpora reveal that idiom variants are classified into four types: the first is formed by blending existing phraseological units with or without causing semantic alteration, the second is composed by the analogy of existing phraseological units without causing semantic change, the third includes those formed due to only lexical replacements of a semantically insignificant by synonymous components that semantically change the original idioms, and the fourth comprises semantically different idioms variants from original idioms due to the synonymous alternation of a semantically important component without semantically extending the original idioms. On the basis of the four types, idiom changes do not occur arbitrarily but in a regular manner.

    言語を習得するには、フレーズの学習が重要であることは古くから知られている。日本では、その成果が辞書の中で提示されることから始まった。最近は、辞書だけでなくフレーズを記述した書籍も多数販売されている。それらを調べると、状況や場面に応じた決まり文句のようなフレーズをそのまま発話で使えるように列挙している。しかし、実際の発話は書籍に書かれたようには進まず、独自の意見を求められることが多く、日本人英語学習者は困惑することがあると推測する。そこで筆者は、ある場面や状況で意見や考えを述べる際に運用できる単語やフレーズを記載した書籍を上梓し、日本人英語学習者の英語運用能力向上に努めている。本発表では、その書籍の背景となった英語定型表現研究 (English phraseology)の説明から始めて、日本人英語学習者が中身を伴った内容を言うためにフレイジオロジーを活用した英語教育を提案した。

  • Corpus-based empirical research on resurgent collocation beyond existing grammatical rules: make angry/mad as an example  [Not invited]

    As corpora develop, dictionaries for English learners try to qualitatively and quantitatively enrich their collocation content. For example, many collocations and idioms expressing anger are included in dictionaries. In particular, they are classified into two kinds: the intransitive employment (e.g. get angry/ mad) and the transitive utilisation (e.g. make/get somebody angry/mad). This corpus-based phraseological research focuses on the transition from the traditional, transitive usage of the existing collocation, make somebody angry/mad, to the intransitive utilisation of a collocation, make angry/mad. The present study elucidates three principal points. First, make angry/mad is established by the analogy of the semantically similar collocation get angry/mad. In terms of the syntactic factor, make takes the pattern ‘make + an adjective’ [SVC], and get angry/mad utilises the same syntactic construction. Second, the linguistic phenomenon discussed in the study occurs because it is more important to convey the intended meaning without causing a misunderstanding than it is to adhere to existing rules. In other words, the notion of linguistic economy works in the case of make mad/angry. Finally, the research outcome reveals that existing linguistic theories and rules account for only a small part of English usage, most of which evidences numerous uses beyond normative theories and rules. From a phraseological perspective, it is safe to assert that resurgent or newly observed collocations formed by semantically similar collocations become ubiquitous regardless of their grammatical functions.

    本講演は、研究と教育は乖離してはならない、研究をどのように教育に還元していくかという立場から、フレイジオロジーをどのように大学での英語教育に活用すれば効果的かという一案を述べる。 世界中で開催されている英語に関連した学会を見ると、理論の発展のための学会、実証的学会、教育方法の実践報告など各学会が独自の進化を遂げるというガラパゴス化が進んでいるように見受けられる。各学会がそれぞれの目的を達成するために具体的事象を扱うことを主としており、それが学習者の英語運用能力向上にどうやって貢献しているのかは一目瞭然とは言えない。 筆者は、このような問題を解決するために、まず外国語を習得する上で必須となるツールを教える側、教えられる側の2つの立場から次のように考えた。前者は1.辞書、2.教材、3.研究、後者は1.やる気（度胸）、2.努力、3.適応力（柔軟性）である。後者3点は、学習者の自発的なものなので第3者が簡単に変えられるものではない。しかし、前者は教える側のやる気でいくらでも発展の余地がある。そして前者3点のうち1点目の辞書については、外国語を学ぶ際には必須となるものであり、試行錯誤を繰り返して研究成果が反映されたものとなっている。そこで本講演は、筆者の専門分野であるフレイジオロジーから辞書に記述されているフレーズを見直すことにより、学習者にとって何をどのように教えたら効果的なのか、そのために活用できる教材はどのようなものなのかを述べる。

    1915年に『熟語本位英和中辞典』が出版されて約100年が過ぎた。その日本語タイトル『熟語本位英和中辞典』と英語タイトルであるSaito’s Idiomological English-Japanese Dictionaryから「熟語」がidiomological匹敵するということが推測できる。しかし、日英のタイトルで使用されている「熟語」及びidiomologicalは、後世の研究者が齊藤秀三郎の研究成果1やその他の資料を調べることにより、どのようなものか推測するという状況で、それが一体どのようなものであるのかは明確になっているようでなっていない。また、その熟語及びidiomologicalが現在のフレイジオロジー（定型表現研究）とどのような有機的な関連を持っているのかも明らかになっているとは言い難い。 そこで本研究は、辞書学と歴史的観点から、以下のことを明らかにする。①約100年前に出版された『熟語本位英和中辞典』（以後『熟語本位』）で扱われている熟語及びイディオモロジー（以後イディオモロジー）とはどういうものかを具体的事象を探りながら述べる。②①で述べたことがどのような過程を経て現在のフレイジオロジーに至ったのかを具体的事象を取り上げながら明確にする。

    The subjunctive were tends to be interchangeably used with the subjunctive was (e.g., If I were/was rich, I would buy you anything you wanted (Quirk et al. 1985)). According to Webster’s Dictionary of English Usage (1989), the subjunctive was started to be used instead of the subjunctive were at the end of the 16th century and was frequently used by the end of the 17th century. The dictionary also mentions that the subjunctive was was used for emphasis; however, tokens of the subjunctive was appeared in less formal language styles. It has been widely acknowledged that the subjunctives were and was are not interchangeable in phraseological units such as if I were you and as it were. Examining instances obtained from corpora, we see the interesting phenomenon of the subjunctive were being replaced by the subjunctive was in the phraseological unit if I were you. From these cases, it can be assumed that the subjunctive were is interchangeable with the subjunctive was in if I were/was you regardless of the registers in which it is used. This phenomenon can be accounted for by the merger of was and were. This study aims to descriptively show how as it were changed into as it was from a phraseological perspective. Furthermore, an analysis of corpora data allows us to explain in detail the actual behaviors of as it was and its relationship with as it were.

    It is widely acknowledged that ‘those that’ is used to refer to things. However, ‘those that’ is also used to refer to people, as is ‘those who’. This study reports that this commonly accepted idea is not valid based on synchronic and diachronic analysis. Synchronically, it is not rare to encounter ‘those that’ being used to refer to people. Diachronically, the usage of ‘those that’ in reference to people appeared before the establishment of prescriptive grammar. The conclusion of this study elucidates why ‘those that’ as used to refer to people is due to the operation of ‘that’ as a relative pronoun. When an antecedent includes either people or things on one hand and people or animals on the other, ‘that’ is chosen as a relative pronoun. Consequently, ‘those that’ is a uniform expression used to denote both people and things; furthermore, it is an old and unremarkable expression.

    本研究は、定型表現の1つであるas it wereがas it wasに変化していることを実証的に述べる。仮定法についての先行研究は、定型表現のas it were, if I were youを除き、仮定法のwereが廃れてきているという見解がある。しかしながら、コーパスでのデータではif I was youが観察され、wereとwasの融合によりif I was youへ移行しつつあることがわかる。これまでの先行研究は、as it wereについてのみ扱っておりas it wasに触れるものはない。コーパスから得られた結果では、as it wasは直説法の過去形であるas it wasと混同しないように、仮定法の文脈で用いられることがほとんどである。このように本研究は、as it wasの実態を実証的に述べる。

    The main purpose of this research project was to give scientific foundation to the contents of English education in Japan. The contents of English education in this country contain many false and unnatural grammatical rules and expressions fabricated out of those false grammatical rules. Our research results were presented in various ways, and new findings were constantly presented at various conferences at home and abroad, thus ascertaining the legibility of our findings during the past four years.
