Contrastive focus is used for invalidating the old information mentioned in the previous discourse by providing a new one. This is also a case of new information focus since one constituent is made salient. However, in contrastive focus, the salient constituent is contrasted with a previously mentioned constituent.
ankara[focus] (yesterday) (evening) (go)
โTO ANKARA, I went yesterday evening.โ
(Adapted from Makaroฤlu 2012: 68)
Another example of contrastive focus is provided below. The information that โThe house belongs to all her family.โ is invalidated by providing the information that it belongs to โherโ only.
ฤฑx3a house family all poss3 no-no poss1
โThat house does not belong to all her family. (It is) HERS.โ
