This study is an attempt to solve the problem of the distinction in usebetween the honorific prefixes O- and GO- which have not been studied verymuch before. It is normally said that the prefix GO- must be used with akanji word immediately before it、 but actually there are some kanji wordswith the prefix O-、 which have been thought of as exceptions. In thisstudy we will prove that the semantics of all the exceptional kanji wordswith the prefix O- is considered as a tool or an instrument.
