Abstract

I explore the implications of the Tense Phrase deletion operation known as sluicing (Ross 1969) for the semantic and pragmatic literature on the Free Choice effect (Kamp 1973, von Wright 1969). I argue that the time-honored ‘I don’t know which’-riders on Free Choice sentences, traditionally taken to show that the effect is pragmatic, are sensitive to scope. Careful attention to such riders suggests that these sluices do not show cancellation on Free Choice antecedents in which disjunction scopes narrower than the modal. EARLY ACCESS

我探讨了被称为“冲洗”（Ross 1969）的时态短语删除操作对语义和语用文学自由选择效应的影响（Kamp 1973，von Wright 1969）。我认为，自由选择句中有着悠久历史的“我不知道是哪一个”附加词，传统上被认为是为了表明效果是务实的，但它们对范围很敏感。对这些附加条件的仔细关注表明，这些水闸在自由选择前因上没有表现出取消，在自由选择前因中，间断范围比模态范围窄。早期访问

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
