190 Workshops Polarity and the additive vs. scalar alternance Tovena, Lucia Univ. de Paris VII tovena@inguist.jussieu.fr Italian,like several other languages(König 1991),is characterised by the clustering of S(calar)additive and P(ure)-additive readings in single lexical forms. Where in English we find the dedicated S-additive particle even and P-additive also, in Italian we find forms like neanche and neppure that have both readings, are specialised for negative contexts and derive from positive forms, anche and pure respectively. For instance, anche corresponds to also (1a), but merger with a negative component yields neanche that works as P-additive n/either (1b) as well asS-additive (1c), in which caseit corresponds to many uses of even in negative clauses. Uses of even in positive clauses mostly correspond to the dedicated Italian positive S-additive particle perfino(1d). The data in(1) prompt the question whether the two readings of neanche are available also for positive anche. The answer is no, i.e. anche is only P-additive. 1 In this paper we tackle the issue of this uneven distribution of readings between positive and negative forms. On the onehand, the observation that theforms differjust in thepresence of a negative component, whose merger has consolidated no longer than a century ago, suggests that this component could be held responsible for the availability of the scalar reading. On the other hand, negation typically expresses a complementation function, thus is not expected to bring in scalarity. Our analysis takes into consideration the particular nature of the negative component at hand. It is not just any prefix but the negative conjunction né (nor), from Latin nec. Merger cancels its syntactic function as conjunction and (1e) would be illformed were e (and)missing. But it does not affect the fact that its presence is justified by the function of connecting two entities. Thus, merged né warrants the existence of preceding alternatives but does not require them to be overt. Hence,it paves the way to satisfaction of the existential presupposition (Karttunen and Peters 1979)— typical of additive particles in general — via accommodation, a crucial factorin making available the scalar reading(Tovena2005,2006).
