Of or relating to anaphora; functioning as a backward reference or having the quality of referring to something mentioned before.
From anaphoric + -al, combining the Greek anaphora with Romance-language suffixing to create an emphatic adjective form.
The term itself is less common than 'anaphoric,' but it appears in detailed linguistic texts to emphasize the backwards-looking nature of pronouns and reference words.
