The grammar is divided into two volumes, with the first volume dealing with sources, script, phonology, lexicon, nominals and adjectives. The second volume focuses on verbs, adverbs, particles, conjunctions and interjections. In addition to descriptive data, the grammar also includes comparisons between Western Old Japanese and Eastern Old Japanese and Ryukyuan, occasionally with a critical analysis of various external parallels"-- SN - 978-90-04-42401-2 v. 1 ; sidottu SN - 978-90-04-42402-9 v. 2 ; sidottu SN - 9789004422117 hardback, set KW - japanin kieli KW - Japanese language : Grammar, Classical.
