Bare argument ellipsis is a kind of ellipsis in which only a single constituent remains and everything else in a clause is deleted.
- “...a rule that deletes everything in a clause under identity with corresponding parts of a preceding clause, except for one constituent (and sometimes a clause-initial adverb or negative)” (Hankamer & Sag 1976: 409).
Examples
- Pedro left La Paz, and María as well.
- Laura drank the milk last night, or perhaps the juice.
- I met Aisha yesterday, but not her daughter.
Synonym
- stripping (Ross 1969)
