Overt and Null Subject Pronouns in Jordanian Arabic
Al-Momani, Islam M.
Advances in Language and Literary Studies, v6 n4 p1-10 Aug 2015
The paper aims at examining the role that morphology plays in allowing and/or motivating sentences in Jordanian Arabic (hereafter JA) to be formed with or without subject pronouns. It also aims at giving a comprehensive and descriptive presentation of the distribution of overt and null subject pronouns in JA, and tries to determine to what extent there is optionality in its system.
