The purpose of this article is to present a new type-shifting rule from <a, a> to <a, <a, b>>, which I call d-rule. This unknown raising is called for in view of the polymorphism of Japanese particles, kakari zyosi, such as wa, mo, sae, dake and sika, which undergo an extraordinary type-shift between <e, e>, <et, et>, <t, t>, <<et, et>, <et, et>, <e, <et, t>>, as well as the determiner type <et, <et, t>>. None of the present type-shifting rules in the framework of Combinatory Categorial Grammar, or `Geach Rule,' Montague Rule,' argument lowering' in Partee and Rooth (1983), or 'z-rule' (Jacobson 1999) in Flexible Categorial Grammar is applicable to these natural language phenomena. The fact that kakari particles undergo type-shift to determinertype, as attested to by Weak Crossover effects, requires such a novel type-raising rule.
