  • Description: Rejection & denial are distinguished as two main types of negation, & the latter is subdivided into explicit & implicit. Spoken & written British English texts were analyzed for negation frequency, type, & words, & significant differences between oral & written codes were found. The preponderance of negation in the oral mode is explained by its more interactive character. An explicit pragmatic theory of negation is constructed, predicting the occurrence of negatives as corollaries of communicative situations. Differences between denials & rejections are examined, & explicit & implicit denials are analyzed as different negation categories. Z. Dubiel
