Anaphora Resolution: Theory and Practice

I-Incompatible (*I)x is an anaphor and cannot refer to individual, concrete entities.• Equating constructions where a pronominal referent is equated with anabstract object, e.g., x is making it easy, x is a suggestion.• Copula constructions whose adjectives can only be applied to abstractentities, e.g., x is true, x is false, x is correct, x is right, x isn’t right.• Arguments of verbs describing propositional attitude which only take S’-complements, e.g., assume.• Object of do.• Predicate or anaphoric referent is a “reason”, e.g., x is because I like her, xis why he’s late.
