Contents:
Frontmatter -- Acknowledgements -- Contents -- List of abbreviations -- List of figures -- List of tables -- 1 Slavic and Finno-Ugric in the typology of Negative Concord languages -- 2 Negative Concord in East Slavic: Looking into the core of the Bagel Problem -- 3 What ellipsis teaches us about Negative Concord -- 4 Neg-words and NPI’s in Czech -- 5 Negation and Negative Concord in Slovenian -- 6 Negative indefinites, Clausal Negation and Strict Negative Concord in Vepsian: Oscillating between Finnic and Russian -- 7 Licensing negative indefinites in Hungarian: A purely cartographic approach -- 8 Negative Concord in Mari -- 9 Negative Concord in Selkup: An overview -- 10 Strict Negative Concord in Slavic and Finno-Ugric: Concluding remarks -- Index
Summary: Expressing negation is a universal property of all human languages. There is considerable variation, however, in the exact ways negation materializes cross-linguistically. Strict Negative Concord differs both from the Negative Polarity Item strategy and the Asymmetric Negative Concord strategy in that the sentence becomes negative only if the sentence negator is overtly expressed in it, irrespective of how many negative expressions are used. The central aim of this book is to describe Strict Negative Concord in some Slavic and Finno-Ugric languages. In particular, the volume gives an insight into the forms Strict Negative Concord manifests itself in Russian, Polish, Czech, Slovenian (Slavic), Finnish, Hungarian, Mari (Finno-Ugric) and the closely related Selkup (Samoyedic) to a wide linguistic community. It aims to create a platform for comparison with similar phenomena in well-described European languages.
