Detecting overnegation in text is provided. A plurality of word lists are compiled. An input text is received. One or more combined weightings are determined, wherein each combined weighting is based, at least in part, on a portion of the input text and the plurality of word lists. A total overnegation score of the input text is generated based, at least in part, on a statistical aggregation of the one or more combined weightings. In response to determining that the total overnegation score exceeds a pre-determined threshold, it is determined that the input text contains a logical error. In response to the total overnegation score exceeding a pre-determined level, one or more actions are executed.
