- English abstract
- Some studies (Company 2001, Torres Cacoullos 2005) suggest that the Mexican Spanish indirect object clitic pronoun is undergoing what Franco (2000) calls feature erosion. The goal of this paper is to investigate the probabilistic patterns of lack of agreement between the singular dative pronoun and its plural nominal referent in three Spanish dialects: Colombian, Mexican, and Peninsular Spanish. Results show that lack of agreement is a frequent phenomenon (38%) conditioned by both linguistic (IO animacy features and position within the phrase, and DO number) and social factors, as this phenomenon is more generalized in Colombia.
