Georgian Polarity-Sensitive Items #

@cite{haspelmath-1997}

Georgian indefinite pronoun polarity items, typed by the categories from Core.Lexical.PolarityItem.

Forms and basic distribution verified against Ch. 4 §2: aravin is morphologically NEG + wh (not NEG + indefinite), and Georgian is a non-strict negative concord language (verbal negation ar is optional with preverbal neg-words). Mood-conditioned variants: vera-vin (modal), nura-vin (prohibitive). nebismieri confirmed as FC indefinite in questions/modals.
