Résumé En

This paper is an empirical contribution to the typology of functional nominals (pronouns) & to the theory of clitics. Its primary goal is to present an adequate descriptive analysis of the attached person & locative markers of Wolof, a language whose "special clitics" partly pattern like those of Berber, described by Dell & Elmedlaoui (1989), Ouhalla (1989), & Boukhris (1998). Our study leads us to discard an all-syntactic account of the special position of clitics, of the sort developed by Ouhalla & Boukhris for Berber, & by Njie (1982) & Dunigan (1994) for Wolof, & to adopt an approach crucially separating the syntactic & morphophonological properties of clitics, along the lines set by various scholars working on the syntax-phonology interface.
