Spanish negation

Spanish negates a clause with the preverbal particle no, and nothing else in the clause changes: canta-s 'you sing', no canta-s 'you do not sing'. A preverbal n-word excludes no and a postverbal one requires it; the n-words are entered in Fragments/Romance/Spanish/PolarityItems.lean. Miestamo's examples are rows of Data.Examples.Miestamo2005.
