The Shoku Nihongi (続日本紀) is an imperially-commissioned Japanese history text.
Fujiwara no Tsugutada and Sugano no Mamichi served as the primary editors.
It is one of the most important primary historical sources for information about Japan's Nara period.
[2] However, a number of senmyō (宣命) or "imperial edicts" contained within the text are written in a script known as "senmyō-gaki", which preserves particles and verb endings phonographically.
