Russian Negation Fragment

[Mie05] [Has13b] [DH13a]

Russian expresses standard negation with the preverbal particle не (ne). Negation is symmetric: adding не introduces no structural changes — no finiteness change, no TAM restrictions, no paradigmatic gaps.

Negative concord (Ch 115)

Russian has obligatory negative concord (WALS: co-occur):

• Никто не пришёл 'Nobody NEG came' = 'Nobody came'
• Ничего не видел 'Nothing NEG saw' = '(I) saw nothing'

N-words of the ни- series always co-occur with predicate negation не. The lexical-reactive side — никто, ничего, никогда, кто-либо, etc. — lives in Fragments/Russian/PolarityItems.lean per the operator/lexical- reactive split documented in Core/Lexical/NegMarker.lean. The NegConcordExample data below illustrates the marker's NC behavior at the sentence level, which is operator-side typology consumed by Studies/Miestamo2005.lean.

def Russian.Negation.ne : Syntax.Negation.NegMarkerEntry

не — Russian's standard preverbal negation particle. A free word, syntactically immediately preverbal.

Equations

• Russian.Negation.ne = { form := "не", morphemeType := Syntax.Negation.NegMorphemeType.particle, position := Syntax.Negation.NegMarkerPosition.preverbal }

def Russian.Negation.negationSystem : Syntax.Negation.NegationSystem

The Russian negation system: a single preverbal particle. The Fragment-side joint consumed by Studies/Dryer2013Negation.lean.

Equations

• Russian.Negation.negationSystem = Syntax.Negation.NegationSystem.ofISO "rus" [Russian.Negation.ne]
