  Article:   MULTIATTACHMENT AND CHAINS IN ROMANIAN GERUND CLAUSES.

Authors:  ADRIANA TODEA. 		 
       
         
  Abstract:  This paper uses the Relational Grammar account of clitic behaviour to identify functional characteristics of Romanian gerund forms. Such insights on how reflexive clitics are items of verb morphology that mark patterns of clause-internal functional operations are used to give a Generative Grammar account of the presence of the agreement-with-the-object phrase (AgroP) in the functional domain of gerund clauses. The paper explores as well the assumption that pronominal clitics, as they signal the φ-features of objects, are actually agreement heads.

Key words: clitic behaviour, reflexive clitics, functional characteristic
