The article addresses the negation structures in Aromanian. In this language the Strict Negative Concord is applied, whereby the negative marker (NM) nu is always requested, also in the presence of n-words, particularly those corresponding to the arguments of the verb. In negative contexts, however, we may also find specialized indefinite elements which in turn give rise to the negative reading. This distribution, specifically the types of negative doubling, is explained by assuming that the negative operator is not realized by a lexical constituent but is postulated and made available to interpretation by the presence of NM and n-words. The Chomskyan theory of Phases and the lexical properties of n-words provide the crucial morphosyntactic tools to connect doubling and other phenomena to the transfer and Spell-out procedures.
