Outer negation of universal quantifier phrases
Linguistics and Philosophy 43 (3):233-246 (2020)
Abstract
This paper discusses two ways of negating DP quantifier phrases. In one way, NEG modifies the quantifier D directly with the structure [[NEG D] NP]. In the other way, NEG modifies the whole DP with the structure [NEG DP]. I give evidence based on negative polarity items that negated universal quantifier phrases like not every student involve outer negation.Author's Profile
