摘要本文概述了日本非传统书写中使用的文字和书写工具的复杂性和多样性，如辅助文本或“红宝石”，并从各个方面，如借用文字的使用，展示了口语接触的平行方面。日语写作的复杂性总体上归因于与主要以书面形式出现的语言的“间接”语言接触，特别是过去的文学汉语和现在的英语，R. A.米勒（1967）用来表征新词在日本的应用。具体的文字选择是根据文化的刻板印象和雅各布森（1960）的语言功能来描述的。广告和漫画被认为是许多非传统做法的主要来源，然后传播到青年写作，甚至流行小说。在每一点上，口语选择和脚本选择之间都有相似之处。
Abstract The complexity and plurality of scripts and writing devices, such as auxiliary text or “ruby,” used in nonconventional writing in Japan are outlined, and various aspects, such as the use of loan scripts, are shown to parallel aspects of spoken language contact. The complexity of Japanese writing overall is attributed to “indirect” language contact with languages encountered predominantly in written form, especially Literary Chinese in the past and English nowadays, to which the concept of “total availability” that R. A. Miller (1967) uses to characterize neologism in Japan is applied. Specific choices of script are described in terms of cultural stereotypes and Jakobson's (1960) functions of language. Advertising and manga are identified as the major sources of many nonconventional practices that then spread into youth writing and even popular fiction. In each point, there is a parallel between choices in spoken language and in script choice.
