WD vs. Definite kinds <br />

DPs are either claimed to have nonunique<br />

ref. (C et al. 2006), or refer to<br />

abstract objects (A & Z 2010)<br />

DPs have ordinary atomic reference<br />

• Pronominalization is only possible by means of regular<br />

3rd person ACC clitic pr. el/lo), but the clitic is not<br />

directly anaphoric to the WD (14a), rather it has an<br />

antecedent that is accommodated by the hearer into the<br />

common ground (14b).<br />
