Add to ORKGOur paper aims at capturing the distri-bution of negative polarity items (NPIs) within lexicalized Tree Adjoining Gram-mar (LTAG). The condition under which an NPI can occur in a sentence is for it to be in the scope of a negation with no quan-tifiers scopally intervening. We model this restriction within a recent framework for LTAG semantics based on semantic uni-fication. The proposed analysis provides features that signal the presence of a nega-tion in the semantics and that specify its scope. We extend our analysis to mod-elling the interaction of NPI licensing and neg raising constructions
