Abstract Japanese "joshi" is an ancillary word which is similar to a function word in English. Acquisition process and neural correlates of this type of words are supposed to be different from those of independent words. As the topics about Japanese "joshi", I considered the underlying mechanisms of telegraphic agrammatism observed in cases of crossed aphasia or in ambidextral aphasics, and of paragrammatistic paraphasias commonly observed in the repetition of sentences in conduction aphasia.
Keywords joshi (postpositional particle), gogi aphasia, telegraphic agrammatism, paragrammatistic paraphasia
