ABSTRACT

This paper aims to examine the collocation of Japanese compound verbs by using a major corpus, Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese (BCCWJ) "Chûnagon" developed by the National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics. It is difficult for Japanese language teachers to teach Japanese compound verbs in the classroom environment since there is a large number of compound verbs to cover. In order to lighten the instructor’s burden on teaching compound verbs, the author proposes that it is not necessary for Japanese language teachers to teach all compound verbs but only those most frequently used by native speakers of Japanese at the start of the learning process. The findings of this paper provide significant clues to determine the frequently-used compound verbs and their collocation by using data derived from the BCCWJ "Chûnagon". The major findings in this paper are: 1. In the collocation of compound verbs, "wo" is the particle that can co-occur with a largest number of compound verbs. 2. Japanese language learners can apply the collocation information to their learning process of compound verbs. It is important for them to know not only the compound verb itself but also its usage.
