==Career==
Ōno is best remembered by fellow professional linguists for his work, following in the wake of his mentor Shinkichi Hashimoto, on the kana writing system and phonology of Old Japanese, published in 1953. He became known to the general reading public in 1957 with his popular book ''The Origins of the Japanese Language'', which, together with Kindaichi Haruhiko's ''The Japanese Language'', published the same year, created a lively interest in the nature, origins, and peculiarities of the language. He also collaborated with Takai Ichinosuke and Gomi Tomohide in the production of important editions of two early classics of Japanese literature, the Man'yōshū (1957–1962) and the Nihon Shoki (1965–1967). In addition, he co-edited a standard dictionary of early Japanese, the ''Iwanami Kogo Jiten'' (1974, second revised edition, 1990), and co-edited a new edition of the complete works of Motoori Norinaga, the greatest scholar of Kokugaku (1968–1993).
As a result, he became one of the best-known linguists in Japan. His 1999 book for general readers, ''Nihongo Renshūchō'' (, Japanese Exercise Book), sold 1.8 million copies.
Ōno made a significant contribution to the field of Japanese quantitative linguistics by indicating a statistical relationship, known as 'Ōno's lexical law', between the category of classical Japanese literary works and the rate of usage of word classes in their lexicons.
