The Japanese language is often under attack by linguists,
translators and even amateurs for having a seemingly vague set of
rules, making it near impossible to ever fully grasp all of the
language's facets. Roy Andrew Miller guides the reader through
these often contradictory allegations by evaluating Japanese in the
light of linguistic science. He also pays particular attention to
the problems inherent in certain systems for describing the
language, and to questions posed by published translations from
Japanese literature.
