This study addresses standard negation in the Guarijío language. The exploration, recording, and analysis of this linguistic phenomenon in this Yuto–Aztec language allows the description of the semantic and morphosyntactic features, as well as the grammatical mechanisms with which this language encodes the strategies to communicate this area of linguistic polarity. The purpose of the work is: (i) to record the clausal contexts where the standard negation takes place in the structures found in the corpus of study, (ii) to recognize the form and position of the standard negation in clauses, as well as (iii) to characterize the morphosyntactic behavior (synthetic or analytic / symmetric or asymmetric) and the semantic performance of this grammatical category within the domain of negation. The previous points show the methodological route that this research will follow, which is carried out under the functionalist approach (Horn 1989; Givón 1984; Honda 1996; Miestamo 2006b, among others) and will be related to typological studies of this linguistic phenomenon (Dahl 1979; Payne 1985; Croft 1991; Kahrel & Van Der Berg 1994; Miestamo 2005, and others).
