Descrição
Resumo:This text aims at proposing a unified analysis for clitic position in complex predicates in Brazilian Portuguese and French, developing the notion of phase extension put forward in Den Dikken (2007). The main motivation for this choice consists in a correlation between loss of verb movement and loss of tense morphology, an explanatory factor for the change in clitics in these languages. In this sense, the paper questions an alternative approach according to which the inclusion of an embedded temporal projection would be the main reason for the change to clitic non-climbing.KEYWORDs: Clitic; syntactic phases; head movement; Brazilian Portuguese; French.
