Description: Reversed polarity questions (RPQs) refer to polar questions that convey “assertions of the opposite polarity to that of the form of the questions” (Koshik 2002: 1855). Reversed polarity questions are treated by their recipients as assertions rather than genuine questions seeking information or requesting confirmation (see Koshik 2002, 2005).
