APPENDIX

I

The colon and semicolon are not used in the texts, the comma is

employed very sparingly, chiefly with forms of _ifu_ (say, &c.) after

quotations.

In Japanese the clauses of a sentence run together in such a way that

punctuation beyond what is adopted in this volume is better avoided.

The verbal forms (allowing for inversions) sufficiently indicate the

end of the clause in most cases.

There are no long lays in books VII, XI, XII, and XIV of the Manyôshiu.

_Nigori_ (voicing) of mutes is seldom observed; owing to its

uncertainty it would have been better to have omitted it altogether

save in a few verbal forms _-eba_ _-aba_ _-de_, _-do_ _-domo_, &c.

_Nigori_ applies to the consonants and digraphs k, s, sh, t, ch, ts, h,

which, _nigori_’ed, become g, z, zh, d, j, dz, b.

The following additions and emendations would not have been relegated

to an appendix but for the fact that certain important and not very

common works could not be procured from Japan until after the texts and

glossaries had been printed.

Lay 14, l. 15. In the note better read ‘north or cross’ for ‘noon-sun’.

16, 5, _kata nashi_ is perhaps a better reading.

27, 40 n., a preferable reading is _imo ga yamazu idemishi Karu_.

31, 10, _ika ni to toyeba_ is better than the text.

40, 21 n., add ‘or _shima kuni_, land of islands.’

44, 26, more correctly _abete_.

46, 6 n., change to--‘the subject seems to be _hito_ of line 4.’

69, 26, more probably _yami shi_ should be read.

82, 25, _nagami_ is the correct reading.

87, 13 n., add _nade_ = stroke, approve.

88, 13, read _kono yama_.

130, 2, } the notes may be omitted.

155, 27, }

192, 19, line 19 is really a m. k. of Tsukushi.

194, 11 n., add--indifferent, see Glossary.

198, over this should be inserted the heading MAKI XV, KAMI; the

same should be the heading of page 137.

On page 235, line 5 from bottom, it is better to remove the quotation

mark to ‘_mune …_, and in line 6 to read _kohishikarame_.

In Lay 171 note 9 should be deleted and the translation consulted.

In Lay 235, line 5, an improved reading is _mukahi tachi_.

257, 15, the _nigori_ is better omitted, not _agari_ but _akari_, so

in 255 (_dai_).

Page 194, l. 35, should read _tatematsurase_.

195, l. 18, better _makishime_.

196, 11, 2, read _haru no ni idete_.

203, l. 23, better a full stop after _nari--nari_. _Yo.…_

207, l. 17, preferable to add _wo_ after _so_.

227, l. 3 (from bottom), _no_ is better than _ha_ after _me_.

II

ADDENDA TO MAKURA KOTOBA

administrator or commissioner (to levy troops).
