Cliticization, that is, the incorporation of an inflected word, is governed by a different principle which I will state preliminarly as (VIII): (VIII) If a lexeme "L" combines syntactically with "Xn" to form a phrase, but morphologically with "Ym" ("m" = 1 or 2) to form a word, then "Ym" must be syntactically adiacent to "L". [...] I revise (VIII) as follows. (VIII') If a lexeme "L" combines syntactically with "Xn" to form a phrase, but morphologically with "Ym" ("m" = 1 or 2) to form a word, then either (a) the language does all cliticization to the left and "Ym" is to the left of "L" or (b) "Ym" is in a phrase governed by "L".
