 Negation also interacts in complicated and often surprising ways with quantification and modality. Perhaps the most analyzed interaction is with universal quantification. Despite the frequent condemnation of the wide-scope reading of negation over universals as in the locus classicus, All that glitters is not gold and similar examples in French, German, and other languages, or in ambiguous sentences like All the boys didn’t leave, the availability of such readings (depending on the speaker, the intonation contour, and the context of utterance) is not as illogical as it may appear (Horn 1989, §3.4; Tottie and Neukom-Hermann 2010).
