Definition

an anaphoric-head construction contains a modifier that modifies a (semantic) head that refers to an individual of the same type as one previously referred to. Example: in I took a red candy and Greg took a green one, a green one is an anaphoric-head construction, referring to a green candy. An anaphoric-head relative clause construction is a special case of the anaphoric-head construction. (Sections 5.4, 19.4)
