Variation in object clitic placement in Ibero-Romance has been of great interest to researchers working on Spanish and Portuguese (cf. Davies 1995, Davies 1997, Andrade 2010a, Andrade 2010b, Andrade 2010c, Schwenter & Torres Cacoullos 2010, Schwenter & Torres Cacoullos 2014a, Barnes, Gonzalez Lopez & Schwenter 2014, inter alia). Among these, European Portuguese (EP) alone displays generalized postverbal pronominal object clitic placement, with preverbal placement licensed in the presence of proclisis triggers. These triggers include negation, subordinating conjunctions, quantifiers, WH operators, and certain adverbs (Barrie 2000, Cunha & Cintra 2002, Perini 2002, inter alia). However, these normatively proclisis environments are loci of considerable variation in clitic placement, as seen below in (1) and (2).

520 $a Variation in object clitic placement in Ibero-Romance has been of great interest to researchers working on Spanish and Portuguese (cf. Davies 1995, Davies 1997, Andrade 2010a, Andrade 2010b, Andrade 2010c, Schwenter & Torres Cacoullos 2010, Schwenter & Torres Cacoullos 2014a, Barnes, Gonzalez Lopez & Schwenter 2014, inter alia). Among these, European Portuguese (EP) alone displays generalized postverbal pronominal object clitic placement, with preverbal placement licensed in the presence of proclisis triggers. These triggers include negation, subordinating conjunctions, quantifiers, WH operators, and certain adverbs (Barrie 2000, Cunha & Cintra 2002, Perini 2002, inter alia).

520 $a Brazilian Portuguese (BP), on the other hand, is a predominantly proclitic variety with variation largely related to the form of the object clitic (Simes 2006), possibly influenced by the same proclisis triggers affecting EP (cf. Cunha & Cintra 2002, Perini 2002). The present study builds on prior work to determine the factors governing the variation in placement of object clitics in the presence of three trigger words that reflect different categories of phonologically strong function words (cf. Vigario & Frota 1998)- que 'that', nao 'no; sentential negation', and talvez 'perhaps'-with a focus on non-normative enclisis, as seen in example (2).
520 $a Using data collected from written and oral sources found in the Corpus do Portugues (Davies & Ferreira 2006-), I examine 2554 tokens from EP and 810 from BP following one of the three trigger words using mixed effects regression. The results suggest that complex multi-verb predicates positively correlate with non-normative clitic placement in EP, while in BP clitic placement before the auxiliary verb is preferred when the object is human. Oral modes of communication also show the most non-normative enclisis in EP, while source document year is a key factor affecting clitic placement in BP. Furthermore, structural priming affects the selection of enclitics in BP and anaphoric direct object enclitics in EP, with the proclisis triggers displaying very little effect on BP clitic placement.
520 $a In EP, clitic placement in complex predicates is also strongly correlated to frequency: highly frequent governing verbs result in normative proclisis and less frequent finite forms result in non-normative enclisis. Unlike in Spanish, the effect of verbal frequency in EP---and to a lesser extent BP---points toward analogical change resulting in the generalized placement found in the language at large. In essence, the findings of this dissertation suggest that EP, BP, and Spanish are all moving toward stabilization of clitic placement, but in Portuguese the mechanism causing the change is analogy, while in Spanish it is grammaticalization. Furthermore, unlike Spanish varieties, constructional effects rather than discourse pragmatic factors strongly influence clitic placement patterns in Portuguese.
