Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to provide an alternative analysis of clausal implicatures of a disjunction that is free from the empirical difficulties faced by Sauerland (2004, 2005) and Gazdar (1979). My account is based on the No Redundancy Principle (NPR), according to which every meaningful expression in a sentence or a text must be non-redundant: Either it must make a contribution to the truth-conditional interpretation, or otherwise its occurrence must be pragmatically licensed. Assuming that the NPR is a rule that regulates all the interpretation processes, I show that the principle provides proper solutions to the problems faced by Sauerland and Gazdar. Especially, it is claimed that it is not clausal implicatures but the NPR that is responsible for the suspension of scalar implicatures and presuppositions.
