Aoki(1991) argues that de-wa-aru forms and de-wa-nai forms rarely appear in adnominal clauses. It is claimed, however, that her argument is inaccurate by presenting numerous examples of the above forms appearing in adnominal clauses. Our computer-aided analysis shows that while de-wa-naiforms occur in adnominal clauses rather freely, de-wa-aru forms occur in adnominal clauses only when the following three conditions are entirely satisfied : (i) nouns modified by de-wa-aru forms are koto or no ; (ii) predicates which take adnominal clauses containing de-wa-aru forms as their objects have such common meanings as [CERTAIN] and [KNOW] ; (iii) such concessive expressions as shikashi, keredomo, ga co-occur. It is also claimed that the above cooccurrence restriction can be accounted for by regarding the above predicates as afterthoughts enhancing the effect of emphasis conveyed by wa.
