Еditor: Vera Podlesskaya

Москва, 2008, 560 p.

This work is the first in Russia to provide a fundamental grammar of modern Japanese. It sets forth a systematic description of the basic data on the grammatical system of Japanese, primarily, of its morphology and syntax. Linguistic facts are presented in broad theoretical and typological context. All language examples are given in Latin transcription, and are supplied with morpheme for morpheme glosses, as well as with literary translation. The book is addressed both to those who study Japanese for practical purposes, to professional japanologists – experts in Japanese linguistics and philology, and to researchers interested in typological and areal diversity of languages.
