Проклитизација глаголских енклитика у дијалектима српског језика
Proclitication of verb enclitic in a dialect of the Serbian language

Summary/Abstract: As for other enclitics, there are special positional rules for the arrangement of verb enclitics in the Serbian language. The most important limitation is the impossibility of using enclitics in the initial position, or after the conjunctions i, a and ni. However, in certain dialects of the Serbian language, enclitics appear in the initial position, and that is when they become proclitics. In some parts of Banat and Prizren-Timok dialects, proclitication of enclitics is a well-known feature, resulting from interference with the neighbouring Slavic and non-Slavic languages. An inspection of dialect material confirms a wider scope of this phenomenon, e.g. in the Koso- vo-Resava dialect, both in the south of the area, in northern Metohija, and in the north, in the Braničevo district. Proclitically used enclitics have also been recorded in the speech of Eastern Šumadija, as well as in some expatriate Serb dialects.
