expl:pv: reflexive clitic with an inherently reflexive verb
Reflexive pronouns (see the feature cs-feat/Reflex) usually replace objects of verbs.
However, some verbs are inherently reflexive, i.e. the verb always occurs with a reflexive
prounoun, and the pronoun cannot be replaced by a non-reflexive pronoun. With these verbs, the reflexive pronoun is attached as expl:pv instead of `obj’.
In Pomak the relation occurs both in intransitive as well as certain transitive verbs, using one of the reflexive pronouns so, sa, se, si, su:
Dabré sí si dašló, kópelø nášo.
well yourself you have.come, boy our
`Wellcome, our boy.'
expl:pv(dašló, sí)
Kopélkata si mýje rakýne.
girl-the washes herself hands-the
`The girl washes her hands.'
expl:pv(mýje, si)
