What is Negation about?

Negation Negative and Positive Clauses Negation is marked by individual words (such as not, no, never) in a variety of functions (including adjunct, determiner, and head of VP) or by affixes within a word (the suffix •n't or prefixes like un• or non•). Very often, however, there is an effect on the whole clause. The grammatical system in which positive and negative contrast is called polarity. In pairs like those in [1], for example, we have a contrast between a clause with positive polarity and a corresponding one with negative polarity.
