Echo Construction and Ad hoc Categories: Semantics of Group Reference in Magahi

Recent studies in the domain of heterogeneous plural indicate homogeneous and categories as two separate functional mechanisms. Given strategic usage language, paper locates pluralizing strategies speech context investigates their interpretive nature from perspective (non)/restrictive parametric features like associative (APL), similative (SPL) definite Magahi (ISO639-2 mag), an Indo-Aryan language. Focusing on variables within members ad hoc set over act context, intersubjectivity, culture, endeavours to perceive a approach that extends beyond realm mere number reference. It closely observes phenomenon plurality makes following claims: (a) echo construction functions Magahi, (b) falls feature nominal plurality, (c) there is heterogeneity sets, thus, plural, (d) SPL APL are because interpretational differences not operational, (e) APLs can have describable references.
