Resumen de Strategies of additivity: German additive noch compared to auch
The German particle noch (‘still’) has an additive reading which differs significantly in meaning and use from the standard German additive particle 'auch' ('also'/‘too’). In the paper, a semantic and pragmatic analysis will be presented focusing on three core characteristics distinguishing additive noch from auch: (i) alignment with discourse time, (ii) association with deaccented focus, and (iii) continuation of the question-under-discussion. The analysis will be based on the notion of focus lternatives and make use of a question-based discourse model
