The History Of Low German Negation (Oxford Studies In Diachronic And Historical Linguistics)

This work examines the diachronic development of negation in Low German, from Old Saxon to Middle Low German. It is the first substantial diachronic analysis of these changes and looks at both the development of standard negation and the changing interaction between the expression of negation and indefinites in its scope.
