A case is reported of failure to supply negation in tag questions for a period of nearly two years. The duration of this error shows that it could not have been the result of limited processing capacity, and this provides reason to doubt this explanation for the similar case of children's failure to invert subject and auxiliary verb in wh-questions. It is argued that other cases which have been explained in terms of limited processing capacity are equally compatible with an explanation in terms of contextspecific knowledge, which holds that a rule is simply not known for contexts other than those where it is expressed.
