Right Node Raising Requires both Ellipsis and Multidomination
Existing analyses of Right Node Raising (RNR) implicitly assume that all instances thereof can be subsumed under a single mechanism, whether it be movement, ellipsis, or multidomination. We challenge this assumption by showing that English RNR can be divided into (at least) two distinct subtypes, one which shows properties of ellipsis and one which shows properties of multidomination. Moreover,...
متن کاملRight Node Raising
Right Node Raising is the term used by linguists to refer to a construction in which a shared argument surfaces at the right periphery of a coordinate structure (e.g. Phil loves, but Mary hates, Greek tragedies). This paper begins by introducing some of the basic properties of this construction, and then moves on to present and compare two of the main approaches to analyzing this construction. ...
متن کاملRight Node Raising in Parsing and Generation
We discuss a grammar engineering account of non-constituent coordination in the clausal syntax of German as it occurs in real corpus data, generalizing the approach of Forst and Rohrer (2009) to right node raising cases not captured so far. We compare our account to the unimplemented metagrammatical technique by Maxwell and Manning (1996) and point out that many of their ideas can be captured u...
متن کاملRight Node Raising: Evidence from ‘Rule Interaction’
In general, the characteristics of RNR are as follows: when identical elements (e.g. constituents) would appear rightmost in every conjunct of a conjoined sentence, the first occurrence(s) are absent. There are two main derivations proposed for RNR structures. First, RNR may be an instance of acrossthe-board (ATB) rightward movement: both copies of the target leave their conjuncts and are right...
متن کاملNon-local Right Node Raising: an Analysis using Delayed Tree-Local MC-TAG
In this paper, we show that the analysis of right-node-raising (RNR) in coordinate structures proposed in Sarkar and Joshi (1996) can be extended to non-local RNR if it is augmented with delayed tree locality (Chiang and Scheffler, 2008), but not with flexible composition (Joshi et al., 2003). In the proposed delayed tree-local analysis, we define multicomponent (MC) elementary tree sets with c...
