Downward monotonicity causal domain -- Morphosyntactic patterns follow monotonic mappings -- Negative polarity additive particles -- A causal analysis of modal syllogisms -- Bipartite exhaustification: evidence from Vietnamese -- Comparatives bring a degree-based NPI licenser.Summary: Edited in collaboration with FoLLI, the Association of Logic, Language and Information this book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second Interdisciplinary Workshop on Logic, Language, and Meaning, TLLM 2020, held in Tsinghua, China, in December 2020. The 12 full papers together presented were fully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. Due to COVID-19 the workshop will be held online. The workshop covers a wide range of topics where monotonicity is discussed in the context of logic, causality, belief revision, quantification, polarity, syntax, comparatives, and various semantic phenomena in particular languages.PPN: PPN: 174380198XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-LNC | ZDB-2-SCS | ZDB-2-SXCS | ZDB-2-SEB
