Version of Record

The meaning of angai is said to be close to that of igai. But these two words have different morpho-syntactic properties. This paper examines the usages of these two words from the view point of their morphological form and shows how their part of speech changed in the early 20th century. Angai originated from the complex noun an-no-hoka in the Heian period. In the Edo period, it gained the usages of adjectival noun and adverb, but those of noun and adjectival noun had almost disappeared by the end of Taisho period, leaving only adverbial usages in the Showa period. On the other hand, igai, which also originated from the complex noun omoi-no-hoka, gained the usage of adjectival noun in the Edo period. But in the Meiji and the Taisho periods, the noun usage gradually became less frequent, leaving only the adjectival noun usage in Showa period. This paper points out two more facts. One is that the new adverbial form angai-to appeared in 1956, which is about 20 years earlier than the time pointed out in previous analyses. The other is that the particle -ni in the adverbial form igai-ni is sometimes dropped these days, which means igai is becoming an adverb like angai.
