I. Introduction
syntagmatic vs. paradigmatic aspects of
grammaticalisation
reanalysis as the main mechanism? cf. generative
accounts of Lightfoot (1979), Kroch (1989) also
in Timberlake (1977), Harris Campbell
(1995) reanalysis actualisation-model (o.a.
Andersen 2001)

6
I. Introduction
reanalysis-based accounts of grammaticalisation
main criticisms
  • Haspelmath (1998340) non-manifested
    reanalysis, 700- year periods of competing
    grammars,
  • categorial reanalysis implies the existence of
    innate categories (Lehmann 2004, Haspelmath
    t.a. cf. most cognitive accounts of language
    acquisition)
  • (cf. also criticism on competence-based models in
    general, e.g. in Wanner 2007)

7
I. Introduction
alternative accounts of grammaticalisation 1.
gradualness
e.g. Haspelmath (1998) ease of production vs.
ease of perception, but this explanation is
highly abstract (p.322)

III. Analogical pathways
30
III. Analogical pathways
Some distributional differences are not
captured by the pronoun gt AGR-cline e.g. rather
idiosyncratic distribution of some
clitics Brabantic 2SG/PL de only occurs in main
clauses with inverted word order Frisian 2SG
ste only occurs as a clitic to main clause
verbs East-Flemish 1PL men only occurs as a
clitic to main clause verbs Bavarian Forest 1PL
ma occurs in subclauses, but only following
auxiliaries (Kurzverben) (almost) all West
Germanic clitics only combine with strong
pronouns, not with weak pronouns, nor with
demonstratives
31
III. Analogical pathways
Kathol (2001) on cliticisation in West
Germanic -innovations in the position enclitic
to the verb spread through analogy over
different syntactic environments -pathways
depend on (formal) similarities between
sentence types (hence no UG is
involved) so enclitic to V gt enclitic to C gt
regular order gt subclause V
32
III. Analogical pathways
  • Kathol (2001) on cliticisation in West Germanic
  • -innovations in the position enclitic to the
    verb spread through analogy over different
    syntactic environments
  • -pathways depend on (formal) similarities
    between
  • sentence types (hence no UG is involved)
  • so enclitic to V gt enclitic to C gt regular
    order gt subclause V
  • many applications
  • old agreement markers complementizer
    agreement (cf. Kathol 2001 De Vogelaer, Devos
    Van der Auwera 2006 Zwart 2006 Van der Auwera,
    Schalley De Vogelaer t.a. De Vogelaer Van
    der Auwera t.a.)
  • emergence of clitics (Kathol 2001)
  • innovative pronouns (cf. Verdenius 1923, among
    many others)
  • innovative agreement markers (cf. Van Haeringen
    1951, Kramer 1996)

III. Analogical pathways

we to Munich go-2SG you to
Ghent Are we driving to Munich? Are you
going to Ghent?

III. Analogical pathways
cliticisation in French and Italian extension
to subclauses is not even an issue
41
III. Analogical pathways
cliticisation in French and Italian extension
to subclauses is not even an issue e.g. French
lui il a eu de la chance je peut vous dire
que lui il a eu de la chance Haiman (1991146)
on Northern Italian dialects All finite verbs
must occur with at least one prefixed clitic
in statements (this clitic is usually a
subject clitic, which may be dropped in the
presence of an object clitic or negative
particle)
42
III. Analogical pathways
Germanic dialects with Romance word order
Walser Deutsch (Northern Italy) endsch
andre ber-wer ... we others carry-1PL We
carry ... (Nübling 1992257) der manut wa
si-wer döi gsi the month that be-1PL there be
en (During) the month that we were
there,... (Dal Negro 2004168)
43
IV. Explanation
cliticisation in German/Dutch vs.
French/Italian explanation (// Kathol 2001)
SOV-subclauses are unlikely targets for
analogical extension from innovations in the
position enclitic to the verb
44
V. Recapitulation
cf. central claim possible analogical
extensions may 1. block syntagmatic
developments 2. influence grammaticalisation
pathways
45
V. Recapitulation
1. Blocking of syntagmatic changes
Dutch, German French, Italian
pronoun gt clitic gt AGR
pronoun gt clitic gt AGR
46
V. Recapitulation
2. Influence on grammaticalisation pathways
Dutch, German French, Italian
pronoun gt clitic gt AGR
clitic doubling gt topic marking
pronoun gt clitic gt AGR

slim bi-st. (Frisian,) 2mv. ts Ob-ts es

... wos mar wöl-mar (Bavarian Forest, only
following auxiliaries)
49
II. Subject doubling
syntagmatic aspects of cliticisation pronoun gt
clitic gt AGR Dutch
French German
Italian EXCEPTIONS? ? still many differences
with ordinary AGR! 1. st, ts and mar are
referential, and hence not fully integrated in
the verbal paradigm 2. they also occur
(obligatorily) following complementisers 3. they
only occur as enclitics to the verb, and at least
st and ts may have originated as formal
variants of the original AGR 4. they are rare
and occur in incomplete paradigms (5. other
criteria apply to 3rd person exclusively)
