From Author;
This letter was written in 2018.
At that time I already wrote several papers on language that had been thought in 1970s-1980s.
I learnt main themes on language from CHINO Eiichi who edited the Linguistics Dictionary published from Sanseido,Tokyo. He was born in 1935.
Another linguist HASHIMOTO Mantaro was also born in same year.
He wrote Modern Linguistics Front Lines of Current Linguistic Studies, 1981, from Taishukan Publishing Company, Tokyo.
After long time I read this book, thinking bach the days of 1980s when I only got lost in the vast linguistic field. Now I read the book calmly and think of his approach of new typology.
He died early in 1987, age 54.
CHINO died in 2002, age 70.
The time really passed by quickly, than very fast, when I thought in my youth days.
