Generative syntax

Antecedent-contained deletion

Antecedent-contained deletion (ACD), also called antecedent-contained ellipsis, is a phenomenon whereby an elided verb phrase appears to be contained within its own antecedent. For instance, in the sentence "I read every book that you did", the verb phrase in the main clause appears to license ellipsis inside the relative clause which modifies its object. ACD is a classic puzzle for theories of the syntax-semantics interface, since it threatens to introduce an infinite regress. It is commonly taken as motivation for syntactic transformations such as quantifier raising, though some approaches explain it using semantic composition rules or by adoption more flexible notions of what it means to be a syntactic unit.

Determining the negation of a hypothesis and conclusion from a statement

👉 Learn how to find the negation of a statement. The negation of a statement is the opposite of the statement. It is the 'not' of a statement. If a statement is represented by p, then the negation is represented by ~p. For example, The statement "It is raining" has a negation of "It is not
