In some sentences with subordinate clauses in TİD, the main clause is followed by a pronominal copy of the subject. These are sentences where the main verb is want, like, forget_to and possibly other verbs in the same group [Syntax – 3.3.2.1].
alia [ix1 university work] want ix3a
‘Ali wants me to work at the university’.
ıxa poss1 son ixa [swim] much like ixa
‘My son (he) likes swimming very much.’
(adapted from Göksel & Kelepir 2016: 9, ex. 11a, c)
In an other type of complex sentence, where the main verb is know_that or forget_that [Syntax - 3.3.2.1], a subject pronoun copy occurs only if it is followed by the main verb:
alia ix3a [ix1 university work] ix3a know_that
‘Ali knows that I am working at the university’.
(adapted from Göksel & Kelepir 2016: 9, ex. 12c)
Sentences with know_that as the matrix verb behave the same when the subordinate clause is an interrogative. This applies to similar non-agreeing verbs. Here, the subject pronoun copy occurs before the second mention of the main verb.
ix1 know_that [who pass exam] ix1 know_that
‘I know who passed the exam’.
