Description:
<jats:p>This paper argues that extant approaches to presupposition projection that eitherrely on strict linear order (Schlenker, 2009) or hierarchy (Romoli and Mandelkern, 2017) cannotprovide a uniform account of data drawn from head-final languages. While building onSchlenker’s theory, this paper resolves the issues by restricting the calculation of local contextsto specific points in the parsing process. The consequence is that the theory makes a predictionrobust to the head directionality parameter.Keywords: presupposition projection, local context, parsing, linear order, hierarchy.</jats:p>
