Abstract

The distribution of "any" may be best understood by replacing the traditional NPI and FC partition with a classification that groups together positive and negative polarity (strong) manifestations while keeping apart indiscriminative (weak) uses.
The talk has concentrated on strong "any" and has shown that analyses based on scalar and on modal properties of "any" both support this new perception of the polarity sensitivity of the item
