Etymology[edit]
From 形容 (keiyō, “description; form”) + 詞 (-shi, “word; part of speech”).[1][2][3][4]
First cited to 1870.[1]
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
- [from 1870] (grammar) an -i adjective: specific to Japanese grammar, an adjective with an attributive form that ends in い (-i)
- [after 1870] (grammar) (more generally, such as in another language) an adjective
Usage notes[edit]
In Japanese grammar, 形容詞 is a specific class of 用言 (yōgen, “inflectable words”), with a specific inflection. Historically, they include words whose 終止形 (shūshikei, “final form”) ends with し and whose 連体形 (rentaikei, “attributive form”) ends with き. In standard modern Japanese, they only include words whose both forms end with い (hence the alternate name "-i adjective"). Other endings occur in dialects. These contrast with other classes of words with adjectival functions, such as 形容動詞 (keiyō dōshi, “-na adjectives”, literally “adjectival verbs”), 連体詞 (rentaishi, “adnominals”), and attributive nouns.
