Abstract

This paper shows that incorporating non-definite demonstratives into the same fseq which covers syncretisms with the declarative complementizer, discussed in Baunaz and Lander’s (2018a) work, is necessary to explain syncretic alignment and morphological containment in such paradigms in a systematic way. The paper also resolves an apparent *ABA violation in such a paradigm in Basaá, a language which shows syncretism between the demonstrative and the relativizer to the exclusion of the declarative complementizer.
