Presentations
Talk by Dalina Kallulli (University of Vienna) in the SNAKLAB series, organized by the seeFField project in cooperation with IOS Regensburg.
In this session, we’ll explore the phenomenon of “Clitic doubling”, a common trait in many Balkan Sprachbund languages. Clitic doubling influences information structure and helps to form object agreement, particularly with topical arguments. Our next guest, Dalina Kallulli, will also discuss the symmetries and asymmetries of clitic doubling in Albanian, how it plays out in relative clauses, wh-constructions, and idiomatic expressions. This area ist still not explored in depth by researchers.
