Book Synopsis Clitics in Phonology, Morphology and Syntax by : Birgit Gerlach
Download or read book Clitics in Phonology, Morphology and Syntax written by Birgit Gerlach and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2001-02-01 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains fourteen articles that reflect current ideas on the phonology, morphology, and syntax of clitics. It covers the forms and functions of clitics in various typologically diverse languages and presents data from, e.g. European Portuguese, Macedonian, and Yoruba. It extensively deals with the prosodic structure of clitics, their morphological status, clitic placement, and clitic doubling. The form and behavior of clitics with respect to tonal phenomena and in verse are discussed in two articles (Akinlabi & Liberman, Reindl & Franks). Other articles address the prosodic representation of clitics in Irish (Green), the differences in the acquisition of clitics and strong pronouns in Catalan (Escobar & Gavarro), the similarities between clitics and affixes or words in Romance and Bantu languages (Cocchi, Crysmann, Monachesi, Ortman & Popescu), the semantics of clitics in the Greek DP and in Spanish doubling (Alexiadou & Stavrou, Uriagereka), and complex problems concerning verbal clitics in Romanian and Balkan languages (Legendre, Spencer, Tomic).

Book Synopsis On the Placement and Morphology of Clitics by : Aaron Halpern
Download or read book On the Placement and Morphology of Clitics written by Aaron Halpern and published by Center for the Study of Language (CSLI). This book was released on 1995 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using data from a variety of languages, this book investigates the place of clitics in the theory of language structure, and their implications for the relationships between syntax, morphology and phonology. It is argued that the least powerful theory of language requires us to recognise at least two classes of clitics, one with the syntax of independent phrases and the other with the syntax of inflectional affixes. It is also argued that prosodic conditions may influence the surface position of clitics beyond what may be accomplished by filtering potential syntactic structures. Finally, the relationship between syntactic, morphological, and phonological constituents within wordlike elements is explored.
Book Synopsis On Clitics and Cliticization by : Judith L. Klavans
Download or read book On Clitics and Cliticization written by Judith L. Klavans and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1995. This investigation shows that cliticization is not a totally unified phenomenon. Asymmetries in the behaviour of phonological and syntactic clitics show that no single principle predicts all clitic behaviour. The study explores the idea that modifications to the original five parameter system of analysis can be altered to a more efficient analysis in terms of three parameters. This title will be of interest to students of phonetics and phonology.
Book Synopsis Clitic and Affix Combinations by : Lorie Heggie
Download or read book Clitic and Affix Combinations written by Lorie Heggie and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, the relationship between clitics and affixes and their combinatorial properties has led to a serious discussion of the interface between syntax, morphology, semantics, and phonology that draws on a variety of theoretical perspectives (e.g., HPSG , Optimality Theory, Minimalism). Clitic/affix phenomena provide a rich range of data, not only for the identification of an affix vs. clitic, but also for the best way to explain ordering constraints, some of which are contradictory. A range of languages are considered, including Romance and Slavic languages, as well as Turkish, Greek, Icelandic, Korean, and Passamaquoddy. Moreover, several articles consider dialectal microparameterization, notably in Spanish, French, and Occitan. This volume thus reflects current debate on issues such as clitic ordering constraints, the relationship of clitics to inalienable possession and the left periphery, and templatic approaches to affixes vs. clitics while examining a broad range of languages.
Download or read book Clitics written by Andrew Spencer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In most languages we find 'little words' which resemble a full word, but which cannot stand on their own. Instead they have to 'lean on' a neighbouring word, like the 'd, 've and unstressed 'em of Kim'd've helped'em ('Kim would have helped them'). These are clitics, and they are found in most of the world's languages. In English the clitic forms appear in the same place in the sentence that the full form of the word would appear in but in many languages clitics obey quite separate rules of placement. This book is the first introduction to clitics, providing a complete summary of their properties, their uses, the reasons why they are of interest to linguists and the various theoretical approaches that have been proposed for them. The book describes a whole host of clitic systems and presents data from over 100 languages.

Startpunkt der Betrachtung sind die Englischen Wortformen "we're" und "won't", die kurz analysiert werden. Im Folgenden geht es um Klitika allgemein und deren Eigenschaften. Kernpunkt der Arbeit ist dann die Frage, ob die Annahme einer weiteren Klasse von gebundenen Morphemen (also Klitika) gerechtfertigt ist und ob jede Sprache solche Morpheme hat, die aufgrund ihres Status zwischen unabhängigen Wörtern und klaren Affixen gewisse Probleme aufwerfen. Im Rest der Arbeit wird noch darauf hingewiesen, ob und inwiefern die Betrachtung bei Klitika bei der Analyse der Interfaces zwischen Morphologie und Syntax bzw. Morphologie und Phonologie hilfreich ist und warum Klitika häufig auch post-lexikalische Affixe genannt werden.
Book Synopsis The Catalan Clitic System by : Susann Fischer
Download or read book The Catalan Clitic System written by Susann Fischer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2002 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series consists of collected volumes and monographs about specific issues dealing with interfaces among the subcomponents of linguistic structure: phonology-morphology, phonology-syntax, syntax-semantics, syntax-morphology, and syntax-lexicon. Recent linguistic research has recognized that the subcomponents of grammar interact in non-trivial ways. What is currently under debate is the actual range of such interactions and their most appropriate representation in grammar, and this is precisely the focus of this series. Specifically, it provides a general overview of various topics by examining them through the interaction of grammatical components. The books function as a state-of- the-art report of research.

Book Synopsis Aspects of the Theory of Clitics by : Stephen Anderson
Download or read book Aspects of the Theory of Clitics written by Stephen Anderson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2005-09-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to cover the grammar of clitics from all points of view, including their phonology and syntax and relation to morphology. In the process, it deals with the relation of second position clitics to verb-second phenomena in Germanic and other languages, the grammar of contracted auxiliary verbs in English, noun incorporation constructions, and several other much discussed topics in grammar. Stephen Anderson includes analyses of a number of particularlanguages, and some of these - such as Kwakw'ala ("Kwakiutl") and Surmiran Rumantsch - are based on his own field research. The study of clitics has broad implications for a general understanding of sentence structure in natural language. Stephen Anderson's clearly-written, wide-ranging, and original accountwill be of wide interest to scholars and advanced students of phonology, morphology, and syntax.

Book Synopsis Clitics in the wild by : Zrinka Kolaković
Download or read book Clitics in the wild written by Zrinka Kolaković and published by Language Science Press. This book was released on with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collective monograph is the first data-oriented, empirical in-depth study of the system of clitics on Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian. It fills the gap between the theoretical and normative literature by including solid data on variation found in dialects and spoken language and obtained from massive Web Corpora and speakers’ acceptability judgements. The authors investigate three primary sources of variation: inventory, placement and morphonological processes. A separate part of the book is dedicated to the phenomenon of clitic climbing, the major challenge for any syntactic theory. The theory of complexity serves as the explanation for the very diverse constraints on clitic climbing established in the empirical studies. It allows to construct a series of hierarchies where the factors relevant for predicting clitic climbing interact with each other. Thus, the study pushes our understanding of clitics away from fine-grained descriptions and syntactic generalisations towards a probabilistic modelling of syntax.

Book Synopsis Pronouns and Clitics in Early Language by : Pilar Larranaga
Download or read book Pronouns and Clitics in Early Language written by Pilar Larranaga and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-08-31 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional grammars have stated that clitics are subject or object pronouns whose distributional features make them different from personal pronouns. This book focuses on the acquisition of personal and demonstrative pronouns as well as clitics with respect to determinative phrases in a variety of languages of the Romance family and several indigenous languages, such as Quechua. A particularly original aspect of the present volume is that it not only addresses syntactic issues, but also semantic and pragmatic questions that have been widely neglected in the literature. It also reports on acquisition data of languages, such as Quechua, which have not attracted the attention of researchers until very recently.

Book Synopsis Romance Object Clitics by : Diego Pescarini
Download or read book Romance Object Clitics written by Diego Pescarini and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an empirical and theoretical exploration of the development of object clitic pronouns in the Romance languages, drawing on data from Latin, medieval vernaculars, modern Romance languages, and lesser-known dialects. Diego Pescarini examines phonological, morphological, and especially syntactic aspects of Romance object clitics, using the findings to reconstruct their evolution from Latin to Romance and to model clitic placement in modern Romance languages. On the theoretical side, the volume engages with previous accounts of clitics, particularly in generative theory. It challenges the received idea that cliticization resulted from a form of syntactic deficiency; instead, it proposes that clitics resulted from the feature endowment of discourse features, which initially caused freezing of certain pronominal forms and then - through reanalysis - their successive incorporation to verbal hosts. This approach leads to a revision of earlier analyses of well-known phenomena such as interpolation, climbing, and enclisis/proclisis alternations, and to new approaches to issues including V2 syntax, scrambling, and stylistic fronting, among many others.
