    摘要、提要註: This study provides a thorough investigation of the expression primarily of sentential negation in the history of Greek, through quantitative data from representative texts from three major stages of vernacular Greek (Attic Greek, Koine, Late Medieval Greek), and qualitative data from Homeric Greek until Standard Modern. The contrast between two complementary negators, NEG1 and NEG2, is explained in terms of sensitivity of NEG2 mueta to nonveridicality: NEG2 is a polarity item in all stages of the Greek language, an item licensed by nonveridicality in the sense of Giannakidou (1998). The asymmetry in the diachronic development of the Greek negator system (the replacement of NEG1 and the preservation of NEG2) is explained with reference to the particulars of the uses of NEG2, specifically the inertial forces drawn by the non-negative uses of NEG2, which being non-negative did not experience the renewal pressures predicted by the Jespersen's cycle. These are its COMP related uses: (i) as a question particle, and (ii) in introducing verba timendi complements.
