Pair-List Interpretation in Multiple Sluicing in Mandarin Chinese

Among the proposals for multiple sluicing in Mandarin Chinese is what we call the multiclausal analysis, which posits that it involves conjoined single wh-questions. In this squib, we examine the analysis through the possibility of a pair-list interpretation for multiply sluiced clauses. We conclude that the multiclausal analysis alone is not sufficient to fully explicate the relevant phenomenon.
