چکیده
In the first part of the paper, I argue that current pragmatic theories of NPI licensing fail to capture the distinction between strong and weak NPIs. Specifically, I will show that an analysis in terms of covert even alone can not account for the limited distribution of strong NPIs. In the second part, I investigate the implicatures of even sentences in weak licensing contexts. I show that they give rise to a minimal-achievement implicature which can be used to derive the markedness of strong NPIs in weak licensing contexts.

Improving the directivity of the plasmonic sectoral horn nanoantenna using lens in its aperture
Horn antennas can result in good impedance matching between the waveguide and free space due to the gradual increase in the aperture size. In this paper, a novel plasmonic sectoral horn nanoantenna based on using lens in the aperture is proposed. It is investigated that in addition to improvement of the directivity, the reflection coefficient is also reduced using the proper lens structure. The...
متن کاملPruning Search Space for Weighted First Order Horn Clause Satisfiability
Many SRL models pose logical inference as weighted satisfiability solving. Performing logical inference after completely grounding clauses with all possible constants is computationally expensive and approaches such as LazySAT [8] utilize the sparseness of the domain to deal with this. Here, we investigate the efficiency of restricting the Knowledge Base (Σ) to the set of first order horn claus...
متن کاملAxial Corrugated Horn Antenna with Elliptical Tapering Function
An axially corrugated horn antenna with an elliptically shaped taper is proposed for satellite communication applications. This structure is a good candidate for the feed of reflectors and also for improving the electrical properties of reflector antennas. A tapering method is used to justify the horizontal location of the corrugation profile which improves the electrical performance of the pre...
متن کاملStudy of disbudding goat kids following injection of clove oil essence in horn bud region
This study was performed to evaluate the efficacy of injection of essential oil of Eugenia caryophyllata in the kid horn buds, as a new chemical technique for disbudding. Five-day-old healthy goat kids from both sexes (n = 16) were divided randomly into 4 equal groups. In groups 1, 2 and 3, 0.2 mL of clove essence and in group 4 (control) 0.2 mL of normal saline was injected into the l...
متن کاملCutaneous horn and Callosity of the ankle: A case report
Cutaneous horn is a horn-like keratotic lesion, which commonly occurs on the head and face, over a wide range of benign or malignant skin lesions. Callosity is a hyperkeratotic plaque produced by intermittent or continuous pressure on the skin. Lateral aspects of the ankles (Lateral malleoli) are frequently involved. We report a rare case of cutaneous horn developed on ankle callosity.
