• Resumen

  • This chapter surveys some of the most important issues regarding the morphophonological properties of Romance clitic pronouns. It covers person, number, gender, case, and animacy distinctions and markedness restrictions; clitic clusters; allomorphic variations and pro- vs enclitic alternation; interaction with verb movement and negation; cumulative exponence and syncretisms; overabundance; suppletion; clitic versus weak distinctions. Specific topics dealt with include: object clitics; subject clitics; possessives; auxiliary clitics; stress; vowel drop (elision, apocope, syncope) ; vowel insertion (prosthesis/epenthesis); aphaeresis, vocalization, and palatalization of laterals; cluster-internal phenomena; order of object clitics; mutual exclusion patterns; synthetic clusters; vowel alternations.
