Pipil Auxiliary Verb Fragment #

@cite{anderson-2006}

Pipil (Uto-Aztecan; El Salvador) has auxiliary verb constructions that exhibit BOTH lex-headed and split patterns, depending on the construction.

In the lex-headed pattern, the capability auxiliary weli is uninflected and the lexical verb carries subject marking. In the split pattern, auxiliaries mark tense while subject and object are encoded on lexical verbs.
