Abstract

The paper deals with the allomorphic variation in the definite article and the object clitic in Neapolitan. After considering a phenomenon of article and clitic deletion of the dialect of Roma and reviewing the analyses that have been developed on this topic, the paper takes into account a similar phenomenon in Neapolitan. The proposal here advanced is that l-deletion in Neapolitan dialect should be considered an instance of allomorphic variation instead of a purely phonological process.
