{"url":"/dataset/meganegraising","name":"MegaNegRaising","full_name":null,"description_markdown":"The **MegaNegRaising dataset**, also known as **MegaNeRd**, is a collection of data that captures patterns of **neg-raising inferences** and **acceptability judgments** for **925 clause-embedding verbs** of English in various syntactic structures. It is part of a larger project that investigates lexically triggered inferences across clause-embedding verbs in English.\r\n\r\nNeg-raising is a linguistic phenomenon where the negation in a sentence can be interpreted as about the embedded clause rather than the main clause. For example, in the sentence \"I don't think he is coming\", the negation is technically on \"think\", but we often interpret it as \"I think he is not coming.","description_withheld":null,"homepage":"http://megaattitude.io/projects/mega-negraising/","introduced_date":"2019-08-14","introduced_date_note":null,"introduced_by":{"paper":"/paper/the-lexical-and-grammatical-sources-of-neg","title":"The lexical and grammatical sources of neg-raising inferences","first_author":"Hannah Youngeun An","url":null},"license":null,"modalities":[],"tasks":[],"languages":[],"variants":["MegaNegRaising"],"data_loaders":[],"num_papers_in_archive":2,"source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28"},"benchmarks":[],"papers_with_a_benchmark_row":[],"syntology_totals":{"read_at":"2026-09-24T18:15:14+00:00","papers_with_samples":0,"samples_harvested":0,"samples_ran":0,"samples_unverified":0,"pointer_only_for_licence":0,"papers_with_no_sample_that_ran":0,"note":"the per-paper counts above, summed; not a rate"},"papers_note":"The archive never published its papers-using-dataset list; these are papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks."}
