NonInitiality within Spell-Out Domains: Unifying the Post-Syntactic Behavior of Bulgarian Dative Clitics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Possessive (nominal) and indirect object (clausal) clitics are homophonous within the Balkan Slavic languages and Romanian. Pancheva (2004) shows that this syncretism is not just morphophonological but that the two types of clitics constitute identical feature bundles bearing dative case.

3rd person clitic combinations across Catalan varieties: Consequences of the nature of the dative clitic [PDF]

open access: yesThe Linguistic Review, 2019
Abstract This article argues that variation in how 3rd person clitic combinations are solved across Catalan varieties depends on the internal morphosyntactic shape of the dative clitic in each variety. We argue that the dative clitic in Valencian Catalan is an inherently case-marked pronominal form (KP), while non Valencian Catalan ...

Morphosyntactic Contact in Translation: Greek ídios and Latin proprius in the Bible

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, Volume 121, Issue 3, Page 404-426, November 2023., 2023
Abstract We investigate the possibility that contact with Greek through the translation of biblical texts may have played a role in the development of Latin proprius ‘personal’, ‘peculiar’ into a reflexive possessive adjective. A few centuries earlier, post‐Classical Greek witnesses a similar development with the adjective ídios ‘private’, ‘personal ...
