Building on recent work that argues in favor of a return to movement analyses for clitics (Uriagereka & Raposo 2005, Boeckx & Gallego 2008, Roberts 2010, 2012; Gallego 2016), this paper explains why object clitics need to engage in probe/goal relations with agreeing verbs to value their Case features. A Case‐based account within Phase Theory (cf. Chomsky 2000, 2001, 2008) allows us to account for previously difficult to explain intervention and other displacement effects associated with these elements, and it also predicts clitic placement in a wide variety of ECM and causative constructions. Clitics in these constructions are sensitive to the timing and location of Case‐assigning mechanisms on the finite embedding verb, highlighting the importance of Case theory in deriving ‘raising to object’ phenomena in Spanish.

西班牙语中的 Clicitization 和抽象案例分配

基于最近支持对 clitics 回归运动分析的工作（Uriagereka & Raposo 2005、Boeckx & Gallego 2008、Roberts 2010、2012；Gallego 2016），本文解释了为什么对象 clitics 需要参与探测/目标关系同意动词来重视他们的案例特征。Phase Theory 中基于案例的解释（cf. Chomsky 2000, 2001, 2008）使我们能够解释以前难以解释的干预和与这些元素相关的其他位移效应，它还预测了各种 ECM 和因果结构。这些结构中的批评者对有限嵌入动词的案例分配机制的时间和位置很敏感，突出了案例理论在西班牙语中推导出“提出反对”现象的重要性。
