		Elision is the omission of one or more sounds (such as a vowel, a consonant, or a whole syllable) in a word or phrase, producing a result that is easier for the speaker to pronounce.
		Elision is extremely common in the pronunciation of the Japanese language.
		However, excessive elision is generally viewed as basilectic, and inadequate elision is seen as overly fussy or old-fashioned.

	The Elision of /k/ in <nk# C> Context
		Collins and Mees claim in their chapter on elision in The Sounds of English and Dutch (1984) that word final /k/ cannot be elided in English if it is preceded by a nasal and followed by a consonant in the next word.
		The fact that neither author mentions the elision of /k/ suggests that it is not a common form of elision.
		It was therefor assumed that the absence of a closure in the vocal tract meant the elision of /k/.

		During elision, a subject would converse and react in a manner consistent with his or her normal behavior, but, occasionally, would perform horrible, sociopathic acts without any change in demeanor.

	`I only said--the syntax--': Elision, recoverability, and insertion in Emily Dickinson's poetry.
		By simple elision, most of which is licensed by syntactic recoverability rules, she creates indeterminacy.
		This study will look at elision both through an examination of syntactic categories and a consideration of rules that Dickinson appears to have formulated and that operate throughout her corpus.
		A subsequent contention is that Dickinson's 1,775 poems show patterns of elision from which we can derive some guidelines for making guesses as to what should be inserted into syntactic positions that she appears to have left empty.
