The grammar of negative polarity items is one of the challengesfor linguistic theory. Theories of NPI licensing have been proposed in terms of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics - each with its own merits and problems. The volume comprises state-of-the-art studies and suggests an interpolation approach to NPI licensing.

The volume comprises state-of-the-art studies and suggests an interpolation approach to NPI licensing.
