    I have been trying out in vain to find statistical data or literature (in
    Japanese or other languages) on the following topic:

    What is the percentage of words written in katakana or kanji respectively
    among Japanese neologisms since 1945 and especially during the last decade
    (1991-2000)?

    A second question:

    What is the largest corpus of Japanese words and proper names that can be
    accessed online?

    As I am not a member of the CORPORA list any answers to my private e-mail
    address are welcome.

    Sincerely
    Wolfgang Hadamitzky
