Verb-Clitic Structures in Eivissan Catalan: Recursive Prosodic Words and Allomorphy

This paper deals with stress shift in verb-clitic structures in Eivissan Catalan, an understudied Romance variety. Within Balearic Catalan, this is the only subdialect in which stress shift is restricted to apply only in second conjugation pre-clitic infinitives, those that, as opposed to other conj...
