The semantics and pragmatics of directional numeral modifiers
Introduction On the basis of data from fifteen different languages (table 1, other side) I argue that directional numeral modifiers (DNMs), exemplified here by up to, differ from other numeral modifiers with regards to the bounds they set. Studying the bounds of numeral modifiers adds a novel element to the recent semantic and pragmatic discussion on modified numerals. My study extends Schwarz,...
متن کاملSyntax and Semantics of Korean Numeral Classifier Constructions
As given in the raising (2a) and causative (2b), the Num-CL sey myeng ‘three CL’ can have a different case marking from its antecedent, functioning as the matrix object. In a sense, it is linked to the original grammatical function of the raised object and the causee, respectively. Central issues in deep-parsing numeral classifier constructions thus concern how to generate such FQ constructions...
متن کاملExactly two things to learn from modeling scope ambiguity resolution: Developmental continuity and numeral semantics
Behavioral data suggest that both children and adults struggle to access the inverse interpretation of scopally-ambiguous utterances in certain contexts. To determine whether the causes of both child and adult difficulty are similar, we extend an existing computational model of children’s scope ambiguity resolution in context. We find that the same utterancedisambiguation mechanism is active in...
متن کاملThe Effect of Familiarity and Semantics on Early Acquisition of Japanese Numeral Classifiers
Japanese is one of the languages that has a numeral classifier system (e.g., Aikhenvald, 2000). The use of numeral classifiers is obligatory when enumerating, and numeral classifiers occur as a bound morphemes attached to a number. The selection of numeral classifiers is determined by the semantic properties of the referent being counted. Cross-linguistic studies of numeral classifiers indicate...
متن کاملComplex base numeral systems
In this paper will be introduced large, probably complete family of complex base systems, which are ’proper’ for each point of the space there is a representation which is unique for all but some zero measure set. The condition defining this family is the periodicity we get periodic covering of the plane by fractals in hexagonal-type structure, what can be used for example in image compression....
