Unaccusative verbs have been the object of much study and research, especially regarding the causative alternation. While there have been many studies that analyze the causative alternation or the nature of the aspectual properties of the clitic se in Romance languages (see for example, Alexiadou et al., 2015; Basilico, 2010; De Cuyper, 2006; Kempchinsky, 2004; Nishida, 1994; Schäfer, 2008; Zagona, 1996), there are not many which provide a uniform account for the distribution of the clitics with the different types of unaccusative verbs in Spanish as a whole, whether they participate or not in the causative alternation. This chapter provides a uniform account for all unaccusative verbs in Spanish, and analyzes the distribution of obligatory PPs and clitics. The analysis adopted here is based on Hale & Keyser’s (2002) model, as developed in Zubizarreta & Oh (2007), which is summarized in Section 3.2, and Mayoral Hernández (2008, 2010).
