Michiton or Nichil?

[ErinaBee]

The feminine nulla can be:

1. Elliptical, agreeing with an implied noun (e.g. res, substantia), or
   
2. Pleonastic / emphatic, reinforcing nichil without strict classical concord.
   

Both are normal in medieval Latin, especially in short, rhetorical clauses. 


Medieval Latin often tolerates (and even favors) redundant negation, especially for emphasis.
Comparable patterns you’ll find in medieval sources:

• nichil omnino
  
• nichil ullum
  
• nichil penitus
  
• nichil nulla
  

From a classical perspective this looks sloppy; from a medieval perspective it sounds forceful.
