After careful scrutiny of the closing words in dialogue and narrative sentences in The Tale of Genji, it appears as though prepositions often occur, as much as over eleven times in dialogue sentences compared to that in narrative expressions. On the other hand adjective nouns, verbs, supplementary verbs are mainly found in narrative endings. Auxiliary verbs yet occupy over forty percent of the concluding clauses of both dialogue and narrative sentences. "Mu, nari, keri, besi, ki, zu" and "keri, ri, tari (completion / duration), mu, nu, zu, nari" are utilized in dialogue and narrative text respectively. Subsequently, auxiliary verbs such as "mu" and "keri" occur in one-fourth of the former and latter, respectively. With such differences in the endings of dialogue and narrative phrases and their literary styles now being evident, contemplating over the expressions that hold the characteristics of a dialogue sentence contained in what is known as the conventional Japanese-style bound book (ground?), grasping the literary style of The Tale of Genji with more clarity shall be possible.
