Paper time! Negative Polarity Items (NPIs) are words that only occur in negated statements. They are assumed to exist in every language, but examples in #SignLanguages are still rare. @CorneliaLoos and I wanted to see whether we could find some for #GermanSignLanguage, so we combined her linguistic and my computational skills to comb the #DGSCorpus for NPIs. Did we find them? *drumroll* Yeahmaybekinda, but not the ones we expected!
