In contrast to the same word order variation in clusters with the much more frequent (and much older) auxiliaries hebben ‘to have’, zijn ‘to be’ and worden ‘to be/ become’, which has been the subject of numerous existing studies, including multifactorial corpus-based work by De Sutter (2005, 2007, etc.) and Bloem, Versloot & Weerman (2014, 2017), the variation in krijgen-clusters has never been investigated before, barring a preliminary study by Colleman & Rens (2016). A mixed-effects logistic regression analysis of data culled from a diachronic corpus of Dutch newspaper texts shows (i) that the variation in krijgen-clusters, though it is fairly new, is driven by largely the same language-internal factors as the variation in clusters with hebben etc., and (ii) that, in the course of the 20th century, there has been a significant increase in the relative frequency of the ‘auxiliarised’ krijgen + participle order. %U https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/NEDTAA2023.1.001.DELA
