James E. ‘Jack’ Iannucci (1914–1991) Frank A. Ventrola (1910–1979) i Acknowledgments I wish to acknowledge the following important people: Alexander Vovin, who inspired this work with an offhand comment, for teaching me Old Japanese, Classical Japanese, and Old Okinawan, and for recommending (before this work was started) that I buy an electronic handwriting-recognizing multi-dictionary of the kind that the Japanese seem to love. I picked up the Brain, made by Sharp. It was a crucial tool that I might not have realized I needed if not for Sasha’s suggestion, and without which I honestly wonder if I could possibly have completed this research. I feel privileged to have studied with him, and had the chance to join the group of students and hangers-on, of which he was the center, who would gather for lifting a glass after hours while talking about East Asian linguistics. Tim Vance, for teaching a stimulating course on Japanese phonology and morphophonology at ex- actly the time when I needed to review these topics in detail in order to do my own work. Ms. Mari Kikuchi, publisher of the Nankai Times newspaper in Hachijōjima, for interesting but too-brief dis- cussions of island history, and pointers to literature.
