A Japanese dictionary. 93 volumes. Compiled by Tanigawa Kotosuga (1709-76). Each of the first, second and third volumes is divided into three parts, each of which is divided into one-character kana words, two-character words, and three-character words, and is arranged alphabetically up to the second syllable. The first volume contains archaic and elegant words, the second volume contains elegant words, and the third volume contains dialects and slang, which indicates the process of compilation. The vocabulary is rich, and the explanations are reasonable and well-founded. The "Outline" at the beginning of the volume provides an overview of the Japanese language, including phonology, kanji, kana, and dialects. It took over 100 years for this book to be published, from the year after Kotosuga's death until 1887 (Meiji 20).

国語辞書。93巻。谷川士清(たにがわことすが)(1709―76)編。前・中・後編の編ごとに、仮名一字の語、二字の語、三字の語などそれぞれ別に、また第二音節までを五十音順に配列してある。前編には古言・雅語、中編に雅語、後編に方言・俗語を収録するのは、編纂(へんさん)の過程を示すものであろう。語彙(ごい)は豊富で、確かな根拠に基づいた語釈も穏当である。巻首の「大綱」では音韻、漢字、仮名、方言など、国語を概説している。本書の刊行には、士清の没した翌年から1887年(明治20)までの100余年を要した。 [沖森卓也] 『尾崎知光編『和訓栞大綱』(1985・勉誠社)』 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
