本研究は

の「同格の属格」と言われる現象の分析である。は日本語とは異なり，「女である私達」を表す際に，men-i（私達の）hehe niyalma（女）のような第一名詞句が定であり属格形で現れる表現が可能である。本稿ではこの第一名詞句が従属節の属格主語であると主張する。コーパス中のコピュラ連体形の用法を分析する事により，1「コピュラに関する従来の記述に反してコピュラの未完了連体形がゼロ（音形なし）になり得る（むしろ通常はゼロである可能性が高い）」事を示す。また2「このゼロコピュラの主語もそれ以外の動詞の主語同様に属格主語になり得る」事も指摘する。この1，2により，の「第一名詞句が属格形になる同一指示の名詞連続」NP_1i -i＋NP_2i（NP: 名詞句，-i: 属格標識，_i: 同一指示）を名詞句「NP₁に属するNP₂」ではなく基底でコピュラ終わりである従属節「NP₁がNP₂である（の）」と考えることが出来る。

In spoken Manchu, i. e. the Sibo dialect in the Ili valley, west of Dzungaria, the consonant s is always palatalized as [š] before the highvowel i, wherever it may occur. Also, the consonant that was transcribedby the Manchu letter normally representing s was Romanized by some Western scholars in the XVIIth through XIXth centuries as š, s, sh, etc., which presumably indicated [š], when followed immediately by i. Althoughsome other scholars in that period used the Latin alphabet s (or Cyrillic alphabet c) for the same consonant in the same environment, their Romanization was surely not a phonetic transcription but rather atransliteration of the Manchu script into the Latin (or Cyrillic) alphabet.
Since the transcription of phonemes of a language in its native scriptusually reflects the speakers' concept of the phonemic level, and not ofthe phonetic level, the syllable transcribed with the Manchu letters sand i denotes /si/. Thus, it is certain that /s/ in /si/ in literary Manchurepresented [š], both initially and intervocalically as an environmentalvariant of /s/. In fact, judging from an investigation of the Chinesetranscription of Jurchen words appearing in the Sino-Jurchen glossaryproduced in the XVth century, the syllable /si/ in Manchu words correspondsto *ši in any position in the cognate words in Jurchen, a pre-Manchulanguage. The Jurchen syllable *si is found only in Chinese loansderived from Chinese si.
On the other hand, Manchu had a consonant that was transcribed bythe Manchu letter normally representing š. This consonant, i.e./š/, however, always preceded the vowels other than i since [ši] was regarded as/si/ then, as a result of a sound change, *ši>si, which had taken placebefore the appearance of the Jurchen language. The syllable /ši/, so transcribedin Manchu script, appears only in Chinese loans of which theoriginal sound was si with a retroflex in its syllable initial.
To sum up, in literary Manchu the sound value of /s/ preceding vowelsother than i was [š], but when preceding i it was [š]. On the otherhand, the sound value of /š/ was [š] before vowels other than i, but [š], a loan pronunciation, when preceding i.
Thus, it can be said that conclusions on Altaic or Tunguz comparativelinguistics such as in Nikolaus Poppe's and Johannes Benzing's, which were reached by regarding the Manchu /si/ as [si], and not as [ši], have to be revised.

Jurchen is the language of the Jurchen tribes, which founded the Chin dynasty in the early twelfth century, and is the oldest of the Tunguz languages for which there are extant materials in the native script.
It is, however, almost impossible to reconstruct Jurchen phonology and establish the phonological system in that period due to the scarcity of linguistic materials. Although Chin-kuo yü-chieh金国語解has survived, the dictionary produced by the Jurchen themselves, the Nü-chen-tzu tzu-mu女真字字母, is not extant.
Nevertheless, inasmuch as the Jurchen section of the Hua-i i-yü華夷訳語 (Chinese-Barbarian Glossaries) produced by the Ming Translators Bureau, namely Nü-chen-kuan i-yü女真館訳語, exists, one may reconstruct the Jurchen phonemes in the Ming period by means of the Chinese characters in the text used for the transcription of Jurchen. Therefore, the present state of knowledge of Ming Chinese phonology furnishes an important key to the solution of Jurchen sound equivalences transcribed by Chinese characters. It goes without saying also that linguistically the Manchu language plays a supplementary role in the solution of Jurchen phonology.
Thus, the pronunciations of individual Jurchen characters, of which some are phonograms and some are ideograme, can be reconstructed by comparison of all occurrences of a given character with its transliterations into Chinese, and then by setting up the phonemes that leave the fewest contradictions. After establishing Ming Jurchen phonology in this fashion, it is then possibleto reconstruct Chin Jurchen phonology via historico-linguistic methods.
As a result, one may discover such facts as: the Tunguz initial *p- was still preserved in Chin Jurchen, which then changed to *f-in Ming Jurchen; the back vowel series *a, *o, and *u contrasted with the front vowels *e, *ö, and *ü in addition to the neutral *i in the Chin period, whereas in the Ming period are found only five vowels, *a and *o of the back series, only *e in the front, and two neutral vowels *i and *u; etc. In addition, although it is known that there are no native Manchu words ending in a consonant but -n, some words ending in the consonant-*γ are to be found in Jurchen; there is no labial attraction in Jurchen, unlike Manchu; there is no phonological distinction between final-*n and-*η even in Chinese loans, as there is in Manchu; etc.

Prof. IKEGAMI Jirō (Professor Emeritus, Hokkaido University; 1920-2011) is a linguist who conducted extensive studies on northern languages from the 1940s to the 2000s. He made remarkable contributions especially to the study of the Tungusic languages. Many of his published works are descriptive studies on Manchu and Uilta (formerly known as Orok) among the Tungusic languages.
Hokkaido Museum of Northern Peoples has a collection of Prof. IKEGAMI's former library materials, donated by his bereaved family. This collection is called Ikegami Bunko.
The present article provides a list of all 158 notebooks in the Ikegami Bunko that he used in his research and studies. In cases where the contents are related to Prof. IKEGAMI's publications, the references have been added so that they can be checked against them. This is the first step in making the contents of Prof. IKEGAMI's notebooks widely known, and it aims to provide clues for those who are interested to access the notebooks in future. It is hoped that further information will be added through future research and studies.

This paper is an attempt to describe the phonological structure of SpokenManchu in Sinkiang (新彊), which is still spoken by about 80, 000 peoplenamed the Sibe (錫伯).
Our informant had lived in and around Hui Yüan (恵遠) from birth till16 (1908-24). According to his information, Spoken Manchu has severaldialects. Our study has revealed that two of them overlap each other inhis speech. The one is the eighth banner dialect which is his father's andgrandmother's language and forms the basis of his one, the other being thesixth banner dialect which is his mother's and moreover, the standard languagetaught at school. The difference between the two is mostly in phonology.They differ, among others, in the sibilant phonemes and some characteristicsin vowel harmony.
In the paper we have marked with (8), (6) or (6, 8) denoting that thecorresponding form is the eighth banner's one, the sixth banner's one orthe sixth and eighth banners' one, respectively.
