Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clark's bridging inference does not include conversational maxims, as they are a separate concept in the field of pragmatics. Bridging inference refers to the process of using contextual information and prior knowledge to connect pieces of discourse that may not be immediately explicit. This can involve reference, implication/implicature, and indirect reference.
