Description:
This title investigates two elliptical coordinations in German, right node raising, and gapping. Ellipsis in both constructions is claimed to be the result of a phonological process which is conditioned by prosodic and focus semantic constraints. The author examines the close connection between focus and ellipsis and there is a discussion of focus structure which demonstrates that the conjuncts are informationally dependent on each other.
