     * 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.). Is it possible to reconstruct local QUDs for each of these cases? ​
 +    * Do we get instances of local focus marking in non-intonation languages (Chadic, DGS)?
 +    * Is local focus marking in Hungarian dependent on a focus correlate ('​az-CASE'​) in the matrix clause? What are the patterns?

    * 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? 
 +   * What are the alternatives for integrating local questions into the overall discourse/​question structure?​ 
 +   * Could alternatives do the job?
