A Study on the Interface between Syntax and Semantics on Ellpisis

省略是回指的一种形式，指的是一个缺失的表达能够在周围的语篇中找到先行词。本文通过对英语中各种省略现象的研究，探讨了省略是如何从其先行词中恢复其意义的。研究表明，省略是语音成分的删除操作或语义成分的复制操作的结果。我还论证过，有些省略位点包含未发音的前形式。

Ellipsis is an instance of anaphora in which a missing expression is able to find an antecedent in the surrounding discourse. I have considered how the meaning of the ellipsis is recovered from its antecedent by investigating various kinds of ellipsis in English. My research has revealed that ellipsis is derived from the deletion operation at the phonological component or the copy operation at the semantic component. I have also argued that there are ellipsis sites that hold unpronouncedpro-form.
