The Spanish pronominal clitic system
In this paper we present a model of the Spanish pronominal clitic system. We start with a review of the phenomenon, including simple and complex clitic climbing and the related phenomena of reflexives, and also the impersonal passive-reflexive and activeimpersonal forms. Then, we review the status of pronominal clitics and propose that it is a dual phenomenon: on the one hand, enclitics are inf...
متن کاملFeature Geometry and the Person Case Constraint: An Algebraic Link
I give an algebraic characterization of the four attested Person Case Constraints that completely abstracts away from the details of their syntactic encoding. All four constraints are reduced to one general prominence principle, with the cross-linguistic variation stemming from differences in how the individual person features are ranked with respect to prominence. These rankings, in turn, form...
متن کاملPronominal feature distinctions in English
This study reports the results of a study in which participants were asked to repeat a sentence and produce a tag question (e.g. The girl behind the headmaster got punished, didn't she?).

متن کاملIdentifying Pronominal Verbs: Towards Automatic Disambiguation of the Clitic 'se' in Portuguese
A challenging topic in Portuguese language processing is the multifunctional and ambiguous use of the clitic pronoun se, which impacts NLP tasks such as syntactic parsing, semantic role labeling and machine translation. Aiming to give a step forward towards the automatic disambiguation of se, our study focuses on the identification of pronominal verbs, which correspond to one of the six uses of...

We apply recent results on the construction of suitable orderings for the existence of right adjoint to the analysis of the following problem: given a preference ordering on the set of attributes of a given context, we seek an induced preference among the objects which is compatible with the information provided by the context.
