Beskrivelse:This work addresses so-called marginal clitics, clitics that are part of several verbal idioms (jorobarla ‘to spoil something’, tomarla ‘to get angry with someone’, pirárselas ‘to leave quickly’, jugársela ‘to risk’), concentrating on two aspects of their grammar: their meaning contribution and their tendency to occur as feminine forms. It is argued that in both cases the answer relates to the presence of a silent noun of manner whose semantic contribution is perceptible despite the idiomatic nature of the construction: the clitic pronominalises features of this noun, under very specific conditions that are not exclusive of this type of constructions.
