In this paper we discuss second position clitics in AncientGreek, which show a remarkable ability to break up syntacticconstituents. We argue against attempts to capture such data in termsof a mismatch between c-structure yield and surface string and insteadpropose to enrich c-structure by using a multiple context free grammarwith explicit yield functions rather than an ordinary CFG.
