## Summary

This poster was presented on 2021 April 8 - 11 at the
[39th meeting of the West Coast Conference on Formal
Linguistics](https://sites.google.com/view/wccfl2021/).  
  
Provided abstract:  

Although the reflexive pronoun 'se' is obligatory in middle constructions in
Ibero-Romance languages such as Spanish or Catalan, it has been described as
optional in these contexts in Asturian, a minority language in North West
Spain. Here, I show evidence supporting the idea that the reflexive is the
spell-out form of a Voice head encoding the participation of a generic
implicit agent in the event.
