a word that is treated in pronunciation as forming a part of a neighboring word and that is often unaccented or contracted.
Word origin
From Ancient Greek κλιτικός (klitikós, “inflexional”).
Used in a sentence
“In fact, even within the northern Italian dialects, subject clitics do not constitute a syntactically uniform class, as has been convincingly argued in Poletto's work.”
“Here, we will see that they also have problems with overt pronouns, especially object clitics, whose emergence is more delayed than in typically developing children.”
