This book elucidates the linguistic mechanisms for ellipsis resolution in Japanese, mechanisms which involve complex processes of inference that integrate grammatical, sociolinguistic, and discourse considerations with real world knowledge.Studies in language companion series ;v. 66.Japanese languageEllipsisJapanese languageReferenceJapanese languageEllipsis.Japanese languageReference.495.6/5Nariyama Shigeko1624054MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824476503321Ellipsis and reference tracking in Japanese3958810UNINA
