Question dependency in terms of compliance and erotetic implication
DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12775/LLP.2015.002
Abstract
The dependency relation between questions is discussed in terms of compliance (developed within inquisitive semantics – INQ) and erotetic implication (developed within Inferential Erotetic Logic – IEL). I show that INQ approach to questions’ dependency is more narrow and strict than the one offered by IEL.
