Clitic Clusters and Clitic Doubling

2006
Many function words in the Balkan Sprachbund languages are clitics. Except in Balkan Romani, most of the “clausal” clitics, notably the pronominal and auxiliary clitics, the negation marker, the subjunctive marker and occasionally monosyllabic adverbs, occur in clusters.

2: Doubling Of Clitics And Doubling By Clitics: The Case Of Negation

Two Properties of Clitics in Clitic-Doubled Constructions

1992
One of the well-known facts about Spanish is that it permits object clitic-doubling (CL-D). CL-D is the process by which an object clitic (CL) enters into a chain with a lexical constituent in argument position, thus forming a discontinuous element (Borer 1984). Both parts of the CL-chain must match in the relevant features (Suner 1986a).

Linguistic Variation, 2018
AbstractObject markers (OMs) in Bantu languages have long been argued to be either incorporated pronouns or agreement morphemes, distinguished mainly by their ability (or not) to co-occur with (i.e. double)in situobjects.

Clitic doubling in Spanish

2010
The syntactic behavior of nouns is in part determined by their meaning; for example, nouns which refer to human beings usually have special syntactic properties. The basic distinction between human and non-human nouns is a psychological reality reflected in language specific properties of many languages. The question is how this difference is reflected

2. Towards grammaticalization of clitic doubling: Clitic doubling in Macedonian and neighbouring languages

2008
In the Balkan Slavic languages, whose dialects actually form a dialectal continuum, clitic doubling shows gradual variation along a vertical north-south axis and a horizontal east-west axis. On the north-south axis, there is variation with respect to the categories that can be clitic-doubled.

A Note on Clitic Doubling in French

2000
Abstract In earlier work,11 took the deviance of (4) to directly reflect the obligatory character of the movement operation involved in the derivation of (5). That approach did not attach syntactic importance to the difference in form between the moi of (3)/(4) and the me of (5).

Clitic Doubling in the Balkan Languages
