[Lingtyp] Indexes fossilizing

[Juergen Bohnemeyer]

Dear all – I’m passing along the following query from one of my advisees, Jose Antonio Jodar Sánchez:

“I have been looking for references which talk about pronominal affixes on verbs which have become fossilized and are now part of the verb root. I checked Anna Siewierska’s book on person but I could not find anything. Do you know of any?”

Presumably, what Jose Antonio’s is looking for is above all citable treatments. However, if the phenomenon hasn’t been dealt with exhaustively (which it may not), I’m sure examples will be helpful as well.

Thanks! – Juergen
