tamaramra is on a distinguished road
Default an important question

I am in the process of a semiotic analysis and i encountered a word system which is comprised out of words that are articulated by way of negation for example:
Impossible, Improper, Incomparable, Incomprehensible
unworthy, Distasteful Disrespectfully Displeased, Disgraceful and so on...
now here's the question - is there any inclusive name for these sort of words? I am wondering how to denote them in my seminar paper and I have no idea whatsoever..
any suggestion?
