Pragmatic effects of clitic doubling

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. Lubukusu appears to be an instance of OMs-as-incorporated pronouns, as OMs in neutral discourse contexts cannot doublein situobjects

Clitic Doubling

2000
Abstract This chapter deals with clitic doubling in Mac and Bg. It should be of broader significance because, among other things, clitic doubling is not associated with a preposition in SI, as it is in the Romance languages, and because it has become grammaticalized as an obligatory marker of specificity in Mac.

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).

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

2008
This chapter discusses the cases of doubling of the clitic negation on either side of a subject clitic, as seen for instance in the Northern Tuscan dialect of Viano in the second person singular. While in standard Italian or in the Tuscan dialects exemplified so far, negation is expressed by a negative clitic, it is well-known that in French or in ...
