 VP-ellipsis is a well-studied kind of ellipsis, particularly with regard to its occurrence in English, although certain types can be found in other languages as well.In the VP ellipsis considered here, which are features of English grammar, the elided VP must be a non-finite VP; it cannot be a finite VP.Further, the ellipsis must be introduced by an auxiliary verb ("be", "can", "do", "don't", "could", "have", "may", "might", "shall", "should", "will", "won't", "would", etc.)
