The purpose of this paper is to consider the ellipsis phenomenon called Pseudogapping. Several researchers have assumed that Pseudogapping results from VP ellipsis, with a remnant having moved out of the deleted VP. Given this assumption, I will propose that Pseudogapping involves movement of a remnant to Spec of vP in the overt component, followed by both PF-deletion of a verb projection excluding the remnant and LF-movement of a corresponding phrase out of its antecedent. I will show that this proposal provides a straightforward account of some properties of Pseudogapping that are distinct from VP ellipsis.
