AbstractIn verbal periphrases, Romance clitics either climb to the inflected verb or remain attached to the non-finite verb. The chapter argues that climbing depends on the point where auxiliaries—including restructuring predicates—are merged. Since the incorporation of clitics takes place in a clause-intermediate position (e.g.

Clitics and Clitic Clusters in Morphology
2019Clitics can be defined as prosodically defective function words. They can belong to a number of syntactic categories, such as articles, pronouns, prepositions, complementizers, negative adverbs, or auxiliaries. They do not generally belong to open classes, like verbs, nouns, or adjectives. Their prosodically defective character is most often manifested

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.

AbstractOne of the major sources of microvariation is the ordering of combinations formed by two or more clitics. Diachronically, cross-linguistic variation increased over time because certain Romance languages have undergone a change, reversing the order of some clitic combinations (in particular, those containing a third person accusative element or ...

Lexicalization of 3rd person object clitics: clitic enclisis and clitic drop
2010The data considered in this article illustrate the subtle variation that typically surfaces when the empirical sample includes a sufficient number of related languages, which share a similar grammar and differ from one another in minimal morpholexical choices.

Abstract The main goal of this chapter is to critically address from a comparative perspective some of the most important issues regarding the syntax of Romance objects clitics. The chapter covers such areas as distribution, licensing, and co-occurrence of different classes of object clitic; distribution of proclisis, enclisis, and ...

Abstract The primary goal of this chapter is to show that PMs in Udi are clitics, not affixes. This is an important part of the overall goals of this work, since I must establish that PMs are clitics before I can show, in Chapter 6, that they are endoclitics.
