초록
The so-calledcoordinated multiple (CM) wh-sluicing in English involves a sluicing with twowh-remnants being coordinated. Previous literature notes that the structure of theremnants can be re-constructed with that of the antecedent clause: they can constitutea mono-clausal, bi-clausal bulk-sharing, and bi-clausal non-bulk-sharing structure. Thevalidity of these structures are questioned in this study with the empirical data observedfrom various types of corpora. In order to widen the accountability of CM-sluicing data,this paper suggests a corpus-based approach that licenses the coordination of multiplewh-phrases in sluicing.
Abstract
The so-calledcoordinated multiple (CM) wh-sluicing in English involves a sluicing with twowh-remnants being coordinated.

Thevalidity of these structures are questioned in this study with the empirical data observedfrom various types of corpora. In order to widen the accountability of CM-sluicing data,this paper suggests a corpus-based approach that licenses the coordination of multiplewh-phrases in sluicing.
