grammar - How to read 連体形 + 上


Taking an example from a page naruto linked in another thread:



外国人が日本語を習得するで難しい点がたくさんあります。




My inclination is to read this as うえ since it's followed by で, however I've got a nagging feeling it might be read as じょう instead.



  • Is my instinct correct in that it's read as うえ?

  • Are there times where 連体形 + じょう is the appropriate way to read it?



Answer



It is read ウエ as you were inclined to think. I do not believe there are any times when it would be read as ジョウ after a dictionary form. It is read as ジョウ when appearing directly after a noun.
