日语中有两种特殊的关系从句：非关系从句和非关系从句。在这些类型的关系从句中，看起来像（枢轴）中心名词的东西出现在从句的左边缘，分别与no和de伴随。这与日语中规则的前置关系从句形成鲜明对比，后者符合中心语-词尾语序模式。本文旨在对这两类关系从句的句法和语义进行详细的考察，揭示它们之间的差异。具体来说，我将提出：（i）No-RC中的no是一个由沉默连接头授权的同位属格助词，（ii）De-RC中的de是系动词da的一种延续/分词形式。Y.根据黑田的论文，将认为No-RC是由连接子介导的DP-内部倒位衍生的。另一方面，De-RC将被证明是与系动词de相连的亲戚。本文还进一步指出，韩国语和汉语普通话中缺少De-RC的对应词是由于没有同位属格助词，因而没有DP内部倒装。
Japanese has two peculiar types of relative clause (RC), No-RCs and De-RCs. In these types of relative clause, what looks like a (pivot) head noun appears at the left edge of the clause and is accompanied by no and de, respectively. This sharply contrasts with regular prenominal relative clauses in Japanese, which conform to the head-final word order pattern. The aim of this article is to investigate the syntax and semantics of these two types of relative clause in detail and reveal differences between them. Specifically, I will propose that (i) no in No-RCs is an appositive genitive particle licensed by a silent linker head, and (ii) de in De-RCs is a continuative/participial form of the copula da. Drawing a parallel with NP-no NP constructions and building on an idea from S.-Y. Kuroda's dissertation, it will be argued that No-RCs are derived by DP-internal inversion mediated by the linker. On the other hand, De-RCs will be shown to be relatives conjoined with the copula de. It will be further suggested that the fact that Korean and Mandarin Chinese lack equivalents of De-RCs is due to the absence of the appositive genitive particle and hence of DP-internal inversion.
