Incomplete Parenthesis: Determining how and why secondary propositions can be elliptical or fragmented from a cross-linguistic and multifaceted theoretical perspective

Objective

This linguistic research aims to determine and theoretically explain the properties of incomplete parenthesis, in comparison to
regular ellipsis and fragments. Thereby, we will provide a systematic typology of (incomplete) parenthetical constructions and
amalgamated sentences based on grammatical features, taking into account the effects of syntax, information structure and
prosody. We also add a cross-linguistic perspective by comparing the inventory and behavior of parentheses in a number of
languages from different families, and we will collect the results in a specialized database that will be made publicly available
via an online application.
