متن کاملNegative and Positive Polarity Items: Variation, Licensing, and Compositionality
In this chapter, we discuss the distribution and lexical properties of common varieties of negative polarity items (NPIs) and positive polarity items (PPIs).

Then we examine if the scalarity approach (originating in Kadmon and Landman 1993) can handle the attested NPI distribution and em...
متن کاملGigantic jets with negative and positive polarity streamers

Generating sequence of the type I GJs resembles that reported previously; after the fully developed jet (FDJ) established the discharge channel, the ISUAL photometers registered a peak that was from a return‐stroke‐like process. The associated ULF (ultra‐low‐frequency) sfer...
