This chapter provides an overview of how the notion of “negative concord” originated and spread in linguistic description and theorizing, and of how it is employed in current work. Various issues addressed by research on neg- ative concord are critically reviewed: the relation with agreement, dimensions of cross-linguistic variation, the negativity and the indefiniteness of the items involved in negative concord.

Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of how the notion of “negative concord” originated and spread in linguistic description and theorizing, and of how it is employed in current work. Various issues addressed by research on neg- ative concord are critically reviewed: the relation with agreement, dimensions of cross-linguistic variation, the negativity and the indefiniteness of the items involved in negative concord.
