“…Frellesvig's (2012) hypothesis of a late development of the conclusive vs. adnominal opposition out of a single "finite" marker *-o is not incompatible with the above proposal. See alsoOsterkamp (2017) for new evidence of an adnominal *-o ending from non-Eastern oj.…”

“…According to the H r 's scenario, earlier vowel sequences would have evolved to †VrV through epenthesis. This is however falsified by ample textual evidence from OJ and internal reconstruction of proto-Japanese, where hiatus is always resolved by vowel elision or crasis (Unger 1975: 72-81, Russell 2003, Frellesvig 2008, Kupchik 2013, but never by r-epenthesis.44…”

Why /r/ is not a special, empty consonant in Japanese

International audienceIn recent work on Japanese phonology, /r/ has been argued to be a unique consonant in the Japanese phonological system, characterized by its default, unmarked and featureless nature. These peculiar features have been claimed to derive from the original epenthetic status and the late historical phonologization of /r/ in Japanese. However, a review of all the relevant evidence shows that there is actually no solid basis for that hypothesis, which proves to be not only inadequate, but also directly falsified by the data. No r-epenthesis process can be reconstructed in earlier Japanese, and /r/ cannot be analyzed as a unique, default, empty consonant

“…Therefore it seems rather unlikely that the adnominal forms arose late in Japonic, as proposed by Frellesvig (2008), since there is definitely evidence for reconstructing the adnominal/conclusive opposition in PJ from comparative evidence.…”

In this article I examine the correspondences found between Western Old Japanese high vowels and Eastern Old Japanese midvowels in light of the recent hypotheses concerning the Proto-Japonic vowel system. Correspondences in both the morphology and the lexicon are established and then comparative evidence from several modern Japanese and Ryukyuan dialects is adduced to show that these are instances of retention of Proto-Japonic *e and *o.
