2 1 6 nandemo / nanishiro
has to be either a hearsay expression (as in KS, Exs.(a) and (d)) or con-
jectural expression (as in Exs.(b) and (c)).
2. The sentence remains grammatical without nandemo, but it cannot
express the idea of uncertainty.
3. Among the conjectural expressions, dard l deshd cannot be used with
nandemo, because the speaker is sure about s.t. more than 50% but less
than 100% when he uses nandemo, whereas he is at most 50% sure
about s.t. when he uses dard l deshd.
