f. It will be noticed in the final segment of this listing, beginning with Y, Rodriguez makes no effort to distinguish among _Kami-ichidan_, _kami-nidan_, and the irregular verb _Ki_ 'to come.' [28] By this single rule Rodriguez brings the two _na-hen_ verbs into the second conjugation. [29] Read _najûda_ and _nijûda_. [30] Although the spelling _auoghǒ_ would contain a redundancy it would agree with such forms as _aghuru_, _coghanu_ and _coghǒ_ found elsewhere. [31] This use of the imperative reflects a purely formal solution to the morphological problem. [32] Read _Yôdareba_. [33] This rule, which consciously or unconsciously associates the future and the conditional, is also applied to the third conjugation, while the first conjugation uses the root. [34] The future is the same as the present. [35] This spelling of the final root consonant with a _c_ is irregular for verbs. Cf. _cakanu_ just below. [36] The association of the negative with the future, and by extension with the conditional, suggests a keen awareness of the underlying system, particularly since the _Canadzucai_ rules to which he refers require the formation be made from the present. It should be noted that this rule is significantly more elegant than that which derives the negative from the root. [37] The _ij_ in the original is the digraph _ij_, as elsewhere. [38] Read _Redomo_. [39] _Majij_ with the digraph would be more regular. [40] A photostatic copy of the entire text has been made available by Shima Shōzō, _Rodorigesu Nihon daibunten_ (Tokyo, Bunka Shobō, 1969). [41] Ōtsuka's comparison of the Spanish manuscript with the printed version of the text suggests that many of the typographical errors found in our text are the result of material being too hastily transcribed from a more correct original while the work was being translated from Latin. [42] This Reference is to _Arte_ of 1604-8. The _Arte Breve_, printed in 1620 in Macao, was not available to Collado. [43] The _Dictionarium sive Thesauri Linguae Iaponicae_, which was in fact published at the same time. [44] See the Introduction for the regularized usage of these symbols in the translation. (The transcription of _gacuxǒ_, and the _aiaǔ_ below, are at variance with the rule for the translation and are here transcribed as printed.) [45] This convention is not transcribed in the translation (cf. Introduction). [46] More regularly _synaloephy_--the contraction of two syllables into one. [47] The geminates that actually appear in the text are; _tt_, _xx_, _zz_, _cq_, _ij_ & _pp_, as well as _cc_ (_cch_), _mm_, _nn_, and _ss_. Two appear initially _mm_, as in _mma_ 'horse,' and _zz_, as in _zzuru_ 'to leave.' The form _qq_ which would be phonetically equivalent to _cq_ is not recorded.
