[Lingtyp] Morphologically complex clitics?

[Marcel Erdal]

Dear Florian,
Turkish 'was' is a clitic inflecting for person: (y)dIm, (y)dIn, (y)dI,
(y)dIk, (y)dInIz and (y)dIlAr,
as described in  Marcel Erdal, ‘Clitics in Turkish.’ In Göksel, A. & C.
Kerslake (eds.), *Studies on Turkish and Turkic Languages.* *Proceedings of
the 9th International Conference on Turkish Linguistics. Oxford ... 1998.*
Wiesbaden, Harrassowitz, 2000, pp. 41-48. (Turcologica 46)
