Ellipsis is the omission of words that would normally be needed to make a sentence complete, but they are understood either by convention or because they were already used in a previous phrase.
-Here are two examples of elliptical sentences whose missing words are understood by convention. English speakers normally use the shorter forms.
- * "Fire when ready" means "Fire when you are ready."
- * "Back to the drawing board" means "We need to go back to the drawing board."
-
-Here are three examples of elliptical sentences whose missing words were already used in a previous phrase.

- * "I drank water, not milk" means "I drank water; I did not drink milk.
- * "I drank water, and Tom did, too" means "I drank water, and Tom drank water, too."
