| Popis: | Total reduplication, i.e. word iteration in the form of X-X, shares common features both with morphological reduplication, a grammatical category (e.g. λέ-λοιπα), and word repetition, a pragmatic strategy (e.g. Σίγουρα! Σίγουρα!). Thus, an attempt is made here to locate the phenomenon either on the side of grammar or of pragmatics or on a supposed continuum between the two (cf. Gil 2005). A particular construction is taken up, the Verb-Verb reduplication in Modern Greek (e.g. pes-pes), which is viewed here as a grammatical operation with a systematic effect on the lexicon. Hence, grammaticalization is seen alternatively not as the birth of grammatical morphemes, but as intertwined and interacting with lexicalization (Lehmann 2002).
