Abstract

国立国語研究所

The National institute for Japanese Language

国立国語研究所は創立当初から統計的な語彙調査をめざし,新聞・雑誌・教科書・テレビ放送など各種の資料について大規模な調査を行ってきた。それは統計的処理の面で先進的なものだったが,最近の英語圏の調査にくらべると代表性・規模などで問題がある。一方,大量の現代語用例にもとづく記述も国立国語研究所が開拓したものであり,現在開発中の1億語コーパスは,語彙調査と実証的記述の伝統を発展させるものとして期待できる。

Since its establishment, the National Institute for Japanese Language (NIJLA) has conducted statistical studies of Japanese vocabulary with a number of large-scale surveys on a variety of data, such as newspapers, magazines, textbooks, TV programs and so on. Although advanced in statistical processing of data, the surveys did not achieve the representativeness or the scale manifested in recent surveys conducted in English-speaking countries, NIJLA, however, pioneered descriptive studies based on large-scale data of modern Japanese and is now compiling a hundred-million-word corpus which is expected to further enhance the studies based on vocabulary surveys and empirical description.
