AB - Some verbs in modern Japanese get deverbalized and become postpositions. In such cases, the source verbs for postpositions take the gerund or conditional form, which is basically used in a non-finite position. Past studies have recognized the existence of postpositions that originate from these two word forms, but they have not focused on the differences in the syntactic linkages that arise depending on the word form. This study classified postpositions into four types according to their syntactic linkages and then identified the type that those postpositions originating from the gerund form and those originating from the conditional form belong to. Through this analysis, it was found that postpositions originating from the gerund form of verbs create linkages at the word level, and more specifically at the verb and adjective level, with verbs playing a central role. It was also found that postpositions originating from the conditional form of verbs do not create linkages at the word level but at the sentence level. The differences in linkages depending on the word form of verbs come from the syntactic features of such word forms. The gerund form has evolved to link two verbs that represent movement, and this feature appears to remain after grammaticalization. On the other hand, the conditional form is intended to link two sentences that represent an event, thus creating sentence-level linkages after grammaticalization.
