* What kind of contexts license focus accenting in conditionals, appositives, and other embedded environments (relative clauses etc.). Is it possible to reconstruct local QUDs for each of these cases? | * What kind of contexts license focus accenting in conditionals, appositives, and other embedded environments (relative clauses etc.).

* What is the discourse-semantic function of appositive relative clauses? Are they really non-at issue, or do they rather express answers to additional QUDs that are superimposed on the main QUD? | * What is the discourse-semantic function of appositive relative clauses?

- | + | * Is this the same mechanism that is overtly at work in the interpretation of indirect scope marking (Dayal 200?), which - in Hungarian - is also possible with relative and other embedded adjunct clauses (Lipták & Zimmermann 2007)? Can it be applied to any instance of embedded focus marking in need of a local QUD? | |
