The Negation of Declarative Verbal Main Clauses in a Typological Perspective
Free delivery. Nothing extra to pay at checkout.
This book is the first cross-linguistic study of clausal negation based on an extensive and systematic language sample. Methodological issues, especially sampling, are discussed at length. Standard negation - the basic structural means languages have for negating declarative verbal main clauses - is typologized from a new perspective, paying attention to structural differences between affirmatives and negatives.
