The main purpose of this paper is to analyze and discuss all the syntactic structure phenomena occurring in deletion and ellipsis in the English comparative sentence. Two interrelated different aspects of deletion and ellipsis in the English comparative sentence have been described under the following topics: (1) Deletion in the Comparative Clause (2) Difference between Deletion and Ellipsis in the Comparative Construction. In Chapter II, we have provided the outlines of discrimination and the syntactic frameworks of deletion and subdeletion and ellipsis in the English comparative construction. In Chapter III, we have made some differences of deletion from ellipsis in the comparative construction according to the properties reflecting syntactic structures. We could attain our goals of examining the results of the following topics: (1) the basic concept of deletion and ellipsis (2) ellipsis types in the comparative sentence (3) ellipsis constraints in the comparative clause (4) coordinate structure reduction and comparative ellipsis. In conclusion, this paper has discussed some differences between deletion, subdeletion, ellipsis and coordinate reduction in the English comparative sentences. Furthermore, their interrelated different aspects can be discussed and analyzed by the structural properties of the syntactic frameworks occurring in the comparative construction.
