Abstract

We propose a novel theory of redundancy capable of accounting for informational oddness observed in varieties of Hurford disjunctions. Drawing on Simons (2001), we relativize a sentence’s informational content, which encompasses inquisitive content, to some salient question under discussion, from which we formulate a novel non-redundancy constraint.
