TY - JOUR A1 - Kortlandt, Frederik H. H. T1 - Japanese aru, iru, oru 'to be' : [oru ist bin aru] T2 - Studia Etymologica Cracoviensia N2 - Among the Japanese expressions for 'to be', the verbs aru (unmarked), iru (animate subject) and oru (humble variant of iru) are of special interest (cf. Martin 1975: 194f. for a descriptive account). We may look for cognates of these verbs in the (other) Altaic languages.
