A phrase structure approach to argument cluster coordination

It has often been argued that Non-Constituent Coordinations involve ellipsis. Focussing in this paper on so-called 'Argument Cluster Coordination', we provide empirical evidence drawn from French against such elliptical analyses and sketch an alternative approach within HPSG.
