Abstract：This paper discusses whether there are quantitative and qualitative differences between the plain style and the polite style regarding two types of sentence-final forms with the Japanese copula: the ‘bare’da and desu forms and those followed by particles. The result of a survey on da and desu in Meidai Dialogue Corpus shows that a ‘bare’ ending is used significantly more often in plain-style conversation than the one in the polite style. One of the reasons for this is that a ‘bare’ da can be used in a monologue, which desu has no access to. It is also observed that even in a dialogue an utterance with a ‘bare’ ending in the plain style often has characteristics of a monologue in that it is not directed to the hearer. A ‘bare’ da ending is a marked sentence-final form in that it is not freely used when an utterance is directed to the hearer whilst a ‘bare’ desu ending is more commonly used in the same environment, and that particles following da make communication possible.
