Abstract

This study aims to investigate the historical development in Basque of the order of the main and auxiliary verb in negated clauses. By analyzing word order in a number of historical texts it is shown that the pattern according to which the negative particle follows the main verb and precedes the auxiliary (as in ikusi ez zuen) is lost in main clauses. At the same time, subordinate clauses are shown to preserve this pattern. An attempt is made to account for this asymmetry in typological terms. A number of factors that affect the order of negation, such as clause type and dialect, are also considered.
