| Description | This paper shows that the negative polarity analysis of Czech temporal adjuncts -TAs ("až do" and "nejméně") is wrong. I provide a new approach and I claim that TAs are subject to the homogeneity requirement for the predicate: only homogeneous predicates allow TAs. I support my hypothesis by clasified data from the Czech National Corpus. |
