remnant: remnant in ellipsis

The remnant relation is used to provide a treatment of ellipsis (in the case of gapping and stripping, where a predicational or verbal head gets elided). In particular, remnant aims to provide analyses that do not postulate empty nodes.

remnant(Maija, Mirja)
remnant(Pariisiin, Prahaan)
