Abstract
In this paper, we deal with syntactic reflexivity. In this case, the reflexives represent the clitic forms of the reflexive pronoun expressing referential identity of the valency complementation realized in subject (usually of ACTor) and of the valency complementation lexically expressed by the given pronoun.
This linguistic phenomenon is studied here especially in relation to the agreement of a surface syntactic complement (with the function of EFF or COMPL). We aim to demonstrate that the case of complement is rather determined by the meaning of the reflexive construction (as in non-reflexive structures) than by the distinction of the clitic vs. long form of the reflexives.
