Negative Concord in Western Armenian

Hrayr Khanjian · 2010

Catalogue summary

The paper introduces a Western Armenian pattern in which two negative morphemes within one clause may yield either independent semantic negations or a single negative-concord interpretation.

Why this matters

The construction contributes Armenian evidence to cross-linguistic debates about how syntax and semantics divide double negation from concord.
