Conclusion -- References -- Index -- The series Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today. 330 $aWhere previous studies supported the effect of the contextual property of Question Under Discussion (QUD) and focus on the scalar implicature of or, this paper presents two experiments that replicate this effect with the scalar term most. Both experiments show that, while story and target sentence are kept constant, more scalar implicatures are calculated when the scalar term is in the focus (new information) part of the sentence. In the experiments, the focus is manipulated by an explicit QUD. It is shown that the effect also holds for sentential answers to yes/no-questions, and might even extend to scalar implicatures in questions themselves. 410 0$aLinguistik aktuell ;$vBd. 175. 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aSemantics 606 $aReference (Linguistics) 615 0$aPragmatics. 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aReference (Linguistics) 676 $a401/.45 701 $aMeibauer$b Jo?rg$0427696 701 $aSteinbach$b Markus$0317853 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817076903321 996 $aExperimental pragmatics$93953975 997 $aUNINA
