Abstract

This paper deals with two linguistic phenomena which are usually considered cases of ill-formedness by the computational linguistics community: intersentential ellipsis and coordination (possibly with gaps). We present an original solution, if compared to those already known for the two phenomena. This solution is conceived within a relevant approach to parsing, i.e. chart parsing, and is coherent with the basic ideas of this approach.
