For the last fifteen years, the typically italo-romance phenomenon known as "raddoppiamento sintattico" (RS) has been the subject of lively debate. Diachronically RS arose from the complete phonosyntactic assimilation of -C# in Word1 with Word2 with #C_ in Word1-Word2 sequence. The roots of the phenomen is the spoken Latin of the imperial era, when the assimilation of -C# with #C- was a substandard alternative to the retention of the final consonant. Synchronically, we propose that the position of the final consonant has been maintained. The latent consonant represents a phonically dissociated element. Since C is dissociated, it is only realised in the liaison context and liaison is a syllabification effect. RS occurs if the two words form a syntactic constituent (minimal phrase); a link to syntactic proclitisation is essential to the process of RS.
