In this paper we investigate to what extent it is possible to determine a reasonable default pragmatic value of complex sentences in a compositional manner, and – when combined with a Boolean semantics – to see under which conditions it gives rise to reasonable predictions. We will discuss several notions of pragmatic value, or relevance, and compare their behavior over complex sentences. We will see that although the goal-oriented notions of relevance give rise to the same ordering relations between propositions, the conditions under which they behave ‘compositionally’ vary significantly.
