Japanese Morphological Profile #
WALS-derived profile for Japanese (ISO jpn). B&N 2001 places Japanese
in the "agglutinating" cell (concatenative + nonflexive + separative).
The verb suffix template (verbAffixTemplate) follows [KIKY13]
and the UD segmentation: seven slots, stem-outward.
| Slot | Category | Morpheme |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | derivation | -su (suru) |
| 2 | valence | -(s)ase (causative) |
| 3 | voice | -are, -rare (passive/potential) |
| 4 | mood | -ta (desiderative) |
| 5 | agreement | -mas (politeness, treated as subject agreement) |
| 6 | negation | -na |
| 7 | tense | -ta (past), -yoo (future) |
