영문 초록

Previous literature on the semantics and pragmatics of English negative polarity items and questions is critically reviewed in this paper. Various attempts to solve the puzzle behind the English any are classified into two major groups, namely semantically motivated approaches and those that are pragmatically motivated. It is argued that the two most-widely accepted views (the domain-widening approach of Kadmon & Landman (1993) and the scalar assertion approach of Krifka (1995)) are different from other approaches in the sense that they are pragmatically motivated and can provide greater explanatory adequacy than the semantics-based accounts. The paper also discusses the negative polarity items in interrogative sentences and provides a future direction of research on polarity-sensitivity phenomena.
