Can somebody brief me What is the difference between ありうる&ありえる？

Rahulk

ありえる is an incorrect reading of あり得る, which should be pronounced as "ariuru." As such it is not a proper Japanese word.

bamboo4

Forgot to mention that 有り得ない is properly "arienai." Here the comstruction is あり＋得ない, thus there is no inconsistency with ありうる.

bamboo4

so [arieru] is a mis-reading, basically?

dc

OK: ariuru, arienai
NG: arieru, ariunai

but i often hear people say:
"sore he arieru ne" = yeh, thats possible...

dc

It is a derogation of ありうる and people use that, true, but old Japanese like me dislike (abhor) such derogations of Japanese. But for this data base, you probably want to keep ありえる.

bamboo4

Thank you very much for the reply.

Rahulk

Thanks for your clarification bamboo4. You should add that as a note in [arieru].

zlash

is the meaning of arieru is to make possible ?
