Ellipsis is when there is an omission of some words that are superfluous or that can be understood from the context.
e.g.
Where’s my pen? On the table!
How did you do in your test today? Passed.
Alice wasn't there for ballet class today and nor was Sally.
Jenny promised to bring the food for the picnic and I the drinks.
