NPIs cross-cut all traditional categories in grammar and semantics, yet their distribution is by no means arbitrary. Theories of NPI licensing have been proposed in terms of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics - each with its own merits and problems. The volume comprises state-of-the-art studies and suggests an interpolation approach to NPI licensing.Trends in linguistics.Studies and monographs.Context (Linguistics)Grammar, Comparative and generalNegativesPolarity (Linguistics)Context (Linguistics)Grammar, Comparative and generalNegatives.Polarity (Linguistics)415Eckardt Regine1095357MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787647703321Beyond 'Any' and 'Ever3713143UNINA
