“…A further possible criticism addresses the linguistic structural level. According to some linguistic theories, single word utterances such as the ones used as critical stimuli, are conceptualised as ellipses, i.e., short forms derived from more elaborate structures by omitting some of their syntactic constituents, especially when they are supplied by the context ( Matthews, 2007 ) (for example see ( Claus, 2015 ) for recent experimental evidence on syntactic gapping). In this view, single words would first need to be expanded into full sentences during comprehension, e.g., “water” into whole sentences such as “Please give me water”, or “The object to which I point is water”.…”

“…Relatedly, using the same paradigm, Claus ( 2015 ) investigated how verb gapping affects the motor system. Verb gapping is the omission of repeated instances of a verb from conjoined sentences, as indicated by the ‘[ ]’ in sentence (4).…”

“…Accordingly, the response box was mounted vertically with the response buttons "up", "middle", and "down", requiring an upward-downward movement for responding (Kaup et al, 2012;Lachmair et al, 2016). Further variations looked at actions involving clock vs. counterclockwise turning movements (Claus, 2015;Taylor & Zwaan, 2008;Zwaan & Taylor, 2006). For instance, a study by Zwaan and Taylor (2006) presented participants with sentences such as "Jim tightened the lug nuts" involving a clockwise turning movement or "Liza opened the pickle jar" involving a counterclockwise turning movement.…”
