reflexivize1963

1963 Language 39 20 The noun John, since it repeats a noun John in the matrix sentence, is pronominalized instead of reflexivized.

1965 S.-Y. Kuroda Generative Gram. Stud. in Japanese Lang. (Ph.D. thesis, Mass. Inst. Technol.) v. 144 The object of a subordinate clause which is coreferential with the matrix subject will be Provincialized rather than Reflexivized.

1967 J. R. Ross Constraints on Variables in Syntax (Ph.D. thesis, Mass. Inst. Technol.) vi. 254 It would be expected that the leftmost occurrence of Bill would be able to reflexivize the rightmost.

1971 Language 47 160 It appears that in Japanese the subject can optionally reflexivize (with zibun) an identical NP [= noun phrase] in an embedded sentence, if that embedded sentence is a part of the VP.

1995 Jrnl. Assoc. Teachers Japanese 29 94 I propose that zibun is not a true reflexivizer, but an anaphor that lacks the ability to reflexivize a predicate.

2. intransitive. Of a linguistic element: to become reflexive. rare.

1976 J. S. Gruber Lexical Struct. Syntax & Semantics i. iii. 73 The expression of Accompaniment must, like the expression of Location, not be generated in construction with the verb. This follows from phrase order and also the fact that they do not reflexivize.

2003 R. Etxepare in Gram. Basque iv. 380 Many predicates can only take the reflexive argument, and cannot reflexivize via detransitivization.
