| The clitics attract the verbal object out of the VP and thereby allow the object to be topicalised. |
|
| Except for Obi-Wan, the good guys in the Star Wars original trilogy all spoke colloquial American English, clitics and all. |
|
| One important distinction divides the broad term 'clitics' into two categories, simple clitics and special clitics. |
|
| Simple clitics are free morphemes, meaning they can stand alone in a phrase or sentence. |
|
| Special clitics are morphemes that are bound to the word they are dependent upon, meaning they exist as a part of their host. |
|
| One characteristic shared by many clitics is a lack of prosodic independence. |
|
| These, of course, are not the only ways to differentiate between words and clitics. |
|
| The analysis in terms of cliticisation, however, begs a further question as to how OE pronominal clitics should be represented structurally. |
|
| It is more complicated to determine the quantity of the monosyllabic clitics. |
|
| The clitics ci and vi are both locatives, but the author provides corpus data to demonstrate the marginal status of the latter. |
|
| Something may be marked as object by case morphemes, clitics, postpositions, word order or some formative of topicalisation. |
|
| See Boskovic and Panagiotidis as examples of studies approaching clitics from a minimalist perspective. |
|
| There are also a number of examples of endoclitics whereby clitics appear followed by affixes. |
|
| The subject pronouns are used only for emphasis and take the stress, and as a result are not clitics. |
|
| The intermediate status of clitics poses a considerable challenge to linguistic theory. |
|
| Similar to the discussion above, clitics must be able to be distinguished from words. |
|
| In fact, even within the northern Italian dialects, subject clitics do not constitute a syntactically uniform class, as has been convincingly argued in Poletto's work. |
|
| The imperfective clitics index one of the core arguments, usually the nominative subject, and follow the rightmost element in a syntactic structure larger than the word. |
|
| The genitive in Albanian is formed with the help of clitics. |
|
| Here, we will see that they also have problems with overt pronouns, especially object clitics, whose emergence is more delayed than in typically developing children. |
|
|
|
| Some tests, specifically, are based upon the understanding that when comparing the two, clitics resemble affixes, while words resemble syntactic phrases. |
|
| Clitics fall into various categories depending on their position in relation to the word to which they are connected. |
|
| Clitics can belong to any grammatical category, although they are commonly pronouns, determiners, or adpositions. |
|
| Clitics and words resemble different categories in the sense that they share certain properties with them. |
|
| Clitics do not always appear next to the word or phrase that they are associated with grammatically. |
