Abstract
After focusing in a previous work (Giancarli, 2014) on the global factors involved in the emergence of DOM in Corsican, we would like here, based on a corpus almost twice as large, to concentrate on the local factors. We identify two: the DOM-ed object is either the marker of a scanning operation or a designator. Being able to cover most of the uses in Corsican and even integrate some marginal uses, these two factors branch into four (the scanning operation can be performed with or without totalization, and designators can be rigid or flaccid) while they can at the same time be reduced to an invariant: a DOM-ed object is an argument set out of contrast.
