In 1968, E. Alarcos postulates a new type of verbal complement in Spanish grammar, which he labels supplement (El piensa en ti, 'He thinks of you'). As often happens, history shows that the reality underlying that concept had long since been noticed. Nonetheless, we cannot but recognise that Alarcos theory has valuable and original aspects. Similary, history also offers different perspectives and approaches which are particularly useful when studying the complexities of the suplement which Alarcos theory does not account for adequately.
