We compare the phenomena of clausal coordinate ellipsis in Estonian, a Finno-Ugric language, and German, an Indo-European language. The rules underlying these phenomena appear to be remarkably similar. Thus, the software module ELLEIPO, which was originally developed to generate clausal coordinate ellipsis in German and Dutch, works for Estonian as well. In order to extend ELLEIPO’s coverage to Estonian, we only had to adapt the lexicon and some syntax rules unrelated to coordination. | A comparison of clausal coordinate ellipsis in Estonian and German Remarkably similar elision rules allow a language-independent ellipsis-generation module Karin Harbusch Computer Science Department University of Koblenz-Landau Koblenz Germany harbusch@ Mare Koit Haldur Õim Research Group of Computational Linguistics University of Tartu Tartu Estonia Abstract We compare the phenomena of clausal coordinate ellipsis in Estonian a Finno-Ugric language and German an Indo-European language. The rules underlying these phenomena appear to be remarkably similar. Thus the software module Elleipo which was originally developed to generate clausal coordinate ellipsis in German and Dutch works for Estonian as well. In order to extend Elleipo s coverage to Estonian we only had to adapt the lexicon and some syntax rules unrelated to coordination. We describe the language-independent rules for coordinate ellipsis that Elleipo applies to non-elliptical syntactic structures in both target languages. 1 Introduction In written German newspaper text clausal coordination occurs in about 14 of the sentences and coordinate ellipsis . 1 in about 7 see a corpus study by Harbusch and Kempen 2007 . Studies of ellipsis in Estonian are hardly available cf. Erelt 2003 . 1 Monopole sollen geknackt werden und Monopolies should shattered be and Mãrkte sollen getrennt werden markets should split be Monopolies should be shattered and markets split in order to deal with these relatively frequent phenomena we develop an Estonian coordinateellipsis generator based on Elleipo the software module written in JAVA that generates clausal coordinate ellipsis in German and Dutch Har-busch and Kempen 2006 2009 . Given the fact that the two target languages belong to two rather different language families German is an indoEuropean Estonian a Finno-Ugric language we expected the two target languages to differ considerably with respect to the rules for generating
