Clitic Misplacement among Normally Developing Children and Children with Specific Language Impairment and the Status of Infl Heads.

Petinou, Kakia; Terzi, Arhonto

Language Acquisition, v10 n1 p1-28 2002

Focuses on an exceptional instance of nonadult positioning of clitics in early Cypriot Greek and Cypriot Greek with specific language impairment. Attributes misplaced clitics to children's incomplete knowledge concerning properties of the inflectional (Infl) particles, which interact in crucial ways with finite verb movement to mood.
