Negative Polarity Additive Particles

Tsinghua Interdisciplinary Workshop on Logic, Language and Meaning, 2020
Many languages have pairs of additive markers that exhibit a common morphological core. This paper focuses on the Romanian pair si and nici and offers an analysis that derives their distribution and interpretation. The crux of the analysis is the claim that nici spells out the negative marker n and the additive particle add; n is argued to contribute ...

Negative polarity items in Ewe

Journal of Linguistics, 2017
Collins & Postal (2014) argue that English NPIs have two distinct syntactic structures: a unary NEG structure and a binary NEG structure. They suggest that this distinction is generally valid for natural languages. This formal difference was taken to reconstruct the common distinction in NPI studies between strong and weak NPIs.

Negative polarity item (NPI) illusion is a quantification phenomenon.

Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition, 2020
Illusions of grammaticality have often been used to probe the properties of the human sentence processor in syntactic activities like subject-verb agreement, reflexive binding, and negative polarity item (NPI) licensing.

Electrical discharge drilling of granite with positive and negative polarity of voltage pulses

International Journal of Rock Mechanics And Mining Sciences, 2019
Electrical discharge drilling is a promising method that allows for the reduction of the costs of well drilling in hard rocks including the energy costs. This paper describes experimental drilling of a well in granite. The well has the diameter of 340 mm

Interaction between electrospray using ionic liquid and simultaneous corona discharge under positive and negative polarity

Physics of Plasmas, 2019
One kind of ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, is used to investigate the interaction between electrospray and corona discharge under positive and negative polarity. A high-speed camera, a digital camera, and an oscilloscope are

Investigation on EDM machining of Ti6Al4V with negative polarity brass electrode

Materials and Manufacturing Processes, 2019
This research paper focus on the machinability studies of Ti6Al4V material during electrical discharge machining (EDM) process. Discharge time, current, and discharge voltage are taken as input process variables.

Licensing Negative Polarity Items

2021
This chapter concerns the role that syntax plays in licensing NPIs (negative polarity items). Scholars have argued for a semantic approach to characterizing the unifying properties of the wide range of licensors, such as negation, disjunction, interrogation, and subjunctives, licensors that all share the semantic notion of nonveridicality.
