Based on the British National Corpus, this book investigates a range of morphosyntactic features of negation that can be found in everyday spoken language and provides the first thorough empirical study of the field of non-standard negation.
Despite the advances of radio and television and increasing mobility and urbanization, spoken English is by no means becoming more like the written standard. English dialect grammar, however, is still a new and relatively undeveloped area of research, and most studies to date are either restricted regionally, or based on impressionistic statements. This book provides the first thorough empirical study of the field of non-standard negation across Great Britain.
