I can see P-stranding under sluicing in Bulgarian?* Klaus Abels UCL FDSL 12, Humboldt Universit�t zu Berlin 1 Sluicing: Phenomenon and background assump- tions (1) Sluicing is the elliptical process where a wh-phrase stands for a wh-question. Alternatively, the author argues for what is called the in-situ approach to sluicing, originally proposed Kimura (2007, 2010), according to which the remnant wh-phrase in sluicing stays in situ. This approach immediately explains the island-insensitivity of sluicing, since no overt wh-movement is involved in the derivation of this construction. On Sluicing with apparent massive pied-piping 3 The approaches to sluicing under discussion in the main body of this paper all assume that there is syntactic structure at the ellipsis site problem in accounting for apparent sluicing in wh-in-situ languages.

Sluicing is clausal ellipsis in a wh-question, leaving only the the lines of Merchant's (2001) focus-theoretic approach to ellipsis licensing is on because English sluicing ameliorates the island-violation as can be seen in (8) (Merchant 2001). (8) They want to hire someone who speaks a Balkan language, but I don t remember which (*they want to hire someone who speaks). Abe (2015), on the other hand, pursues the in-situ deletion approach, where TP underdoes deletion This paper is about the grammar of ellipsis, specifically, sluicing (Ross Section 2.2. Introduces the three main approaches to sluicing from the The situation in (38) is not particularly surprising under no-syntax accounts. A similar situation has been observed in Serbo-Croatian Stjepanovic. (2003). Deletion approaches can be found in Ross (1969), Merchant (2001) and. Alternatively, the author argues for what is called the in-situ approach to sluicing, originally proposed Kimura (2007, 2010), according to which the remnant Sluicing consists of a number of subtypes, each one exhibiting its own properties cases of sluicing that appear to resist assimilation to a pure deletion approach. Ross s example constitutes a defense of wh-move-and-delete approaches to sluicing against, on the one hand, direct interpretation approaches that posit no contextually variable structure at the ellipsis site and against, on the other hand, Abe s (2015) in-situ approach. It is these consequences that make the quirky example worth our Wh-in-situ languages have a special role to play in this discussion, for two reasons. First, the above prediction is one way in which the Ross/Merchant theory of genuine sluicing differs from its competitors.
