The scalar but not concessive features of the exhaustivity focus marker -man (or dake) in inherently scalar numeral, quantifier and predicate contexts will also be described. Some relatedness between polarity/negativity and implicature (suspension) will be investigated. Negative CT Ss invoke affirmative weaker implicatures connected by a PA 'but' and metalinguistic negation constitutes a Contrastive Focus construction.

If it is followed by a NOM, as in (2), however, it must be either specific or a partition, though not definite, taking wide scope over the negation as an existential, in the S. So, 'more didn't come' is not scalarly entailed by (2). Attributing polarity simply to focus, as done by Rooth (1985) , Krifka (1994) and partly Lahiri (1998) or to simple scalar implicature suspension, as proposed by Chierchia (2002) is not adequate enough. Chierchia's approach simply lacks an ultimate motivation behind polarity. Concession triggers an adversity scale and suspends scalar implicatures. So, contrary to his expectation, an implicature of 'not both' is suspended in the following S because of the concessive 'even' without any negative predicate such as 'doubt':",

The motivation of scalar alternatives lies in the strategy of making concession. Concession is scalar: a bigger concession entails a smaller concession. When you make concession you go down the scale of alternative adverse steps. So, the weakest bound in a given situation must be negatively rendered. Thus total negation of the maximization of the relevant wh-domain is possible if the bound is the lowest like hana or one in any language.

He addresses the latter type of scale. Without any CT contour on (20A), it may have an exhaustive interpretation with \"standard\" partition, evoking no particular scale among alternative Beatles. What I advocate is not the part-whole poset scale but the weight or prestige scale among alternative Beatles, an intra-type scale. If we use the Contrastive (fall-rise) Contour on the answer \"George Harrison's,\" preferably with the question 'Do you have John Lennon's autograph?' the scalar implicature is unmistakable and because of the linguistic device used (a contrastive pitch contour in English or a morpheme + a high tone in Korean) it is a conventional implicature. It cannot be cancelled. The scale has the intra-type elements. In a nutshell, Contrastive Topic is employed to convey this kind of implicature, concessively admitting the uttered proposition.",

Then, its implicature may be: [I married her because she is nice], 'nice' being weaker than 'rich' in the pragmatic scale.

All the scope relations involving quantifier-negation and REASON-negation depend on whether the sentences in question have inherently Contrastive Predicate Topic, related to the previous discourse context.

The quantifier taypwupwun 'most' in Korean, on the other hand, leans toward the positive totality and seems to block the attachment of -man, which otherwise requires exclusion of a higher alternative 'all.' 35shows that -man, applied to a predicate, denies a stronger one, turning out to be scalar.

Another concessive is ever, typically attached to wh-, and its equivalents in other languages, forming Universal Concessive Conditionals (UCCs) (K\u00f6nig 1986, Gawron 2001)(e.g., John would accept whatever (*every) salary they offered). If the main clause happens to be negative, it develops into NPIs. Depending on the discourse presupposition of the clause, it may require a modal main predicate (FC), interrogative etc. (settle-for-less, weak NPI) or negative main predicate (strong NPI). This is demonstrated in Russian, as in (17)."
