日本昔話を読むための基本語彙の構築―柳田國男『日本昔話集（上）』を試みに―

詞庫是由詞所構成的集合。本稿立足於此觀點上，以『日本昔話集（上）』（1930年、柳田國男、アルス社）為討論材料，試從詞之出現頻率與範圍建構日本民間故事之基本詞庫，並透過與他領域高頻詞知對比找出較具有代表此詞庫之特徵詞以初步瞭解此詞庫之特徵。希冀此結果能對今後整理日本民間故事詞庫有所助益。結果從此資料找出佔總辭量80%且覆蓋範圍在60～90%之間的高頻順位詞1,107詞做為此詞庫之基礎，其中，以主角出現的「爺、一人」、故事發生的場所方位名詞「家、山、方」、與場所名詞呼應的動詞「出る、□る、入る」和「持っ」、具串連故事情節發展的接續詞「そうして」和表不特定之意的連體詞「或る」是比較具有代表這詞庫的特徵詞。
