Beskrivning:In this article we analyze, from the perspective of contact linguistics, the morpho-syntactic phenomena of variation in the Spanish spoken by the Malecu related to formal properties of grammatical codification of participants and allegedly induced by contact between the Malecu language and Spanish: the neutralization of the verbal category of number in the third person, the bigger frequency of ad sensum verb agreement with the collective noun ‘gente’ (people) as subject of the same clause, the verbal agreement with the argument which codifies the experiencer participant in the clauses with dative verbs, the neutralization of number category in the indirect object clitics, and the codification of benefactive/addressee/recipient participants through a prepositional phrase with ‘para’ (for).
