In particular, the proposed account shows that Comparative Deletion is merely a surface phenomenon that can be drawn back to the overtness of the comparative operator and the availability of lower copies of a movement chain, and it is thus subject to both language-internal and cross-linguistic variation. The main focus of the book is on English, yet other languages are also discussed for comparative purposes, with the aim of showing what the idiosyncratic properties of English comparatives are. 606 $aEnglish language$xDeletion 610 $aLinguistics 610 $aAdjective 610 $aEllipsis 610 $aHungarian language 610 $aLexical verb 610 $aPolish language 610 $aPredicate (grammar) 610 $aSpecifier (linguistics) 610 $aSyntax 610 $aVerb 610 $aVerb phrase ellipsis 615 0$aEnglish language$xDeletion. 700 $aBacskai-Atkari$b Julia$0964503 801 0$bES-MaCSI 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910283647103321 996 $aDeletion phenomena in comparative constructions$92188190 997 $aUNINA
