neg: negation modifier

The negation modifier (neg) is the relation between a negation word and the word it modifies. Modifiers labeled neg depend either on a noun (group “noun dependents”) or on a predicate (group “non-core dependents of clausal predicates”).

• Predicate negation:

Ez da inolako hazkunderik antzematen euskararen erabileran .

It has not perceived any growth in the use of Basque .
