Paperno. 330 $aThis work presents the structure, distribution and semantic interpretation of quantificational expressions in languages from diverse language families and typological profiles. The current volume pays special attention to underrepresented languages of different status and endangerment level. Languages covered include American and Russian Sign Languages, and sixteen spoken languages from Africa, Australia, Papua, the Americas, and different parts of Asia. The articles respond to a questionnaire the editors constructed to enable detailed crosslinguistic comparison of numerous features. They offer comparable information on semantic classes of quantifiers (generalized existential, generalized universal, proportional, partitive), syntactically complex quantifiers (intensive modification, Boolean compounds, exception phrases, etc.), and several more specific issues such as quantifier scope ambiguities, floating quantifiers, and binary (type 2) quantifiers. The book is intended for semanticists, logicians interested in quantification in natural language, and general linguists as articles are meant to be descriptive and theory independent. The book continues and expands the coverage of the Handbook of Quantifiers in Natural Language (2012) by the same editors, and extends the earlier work in Matthewson (2008), Gil et al. (2013) and Bach et al (1995). 410 0$aStudies in Linguistics and Philosophy,$x0924-4662 ;$v97 606 $aSemantics 606 $aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax 606 $aSemantics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N39000 606 $aPhilosophy of Language$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E26000 606 $aSyntax$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N45000 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax. 615 14$aSemantics. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Language. 615 24$aSyntax. 676 $a415 702 $aPaperno$b Denis$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKeenan$b Edward L$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910252705903321 996 $aHandbook of Quantifiers in Natural Language: Volume II$92517223 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02387nam 2200565 a 450 001 9910968836103321 005 20251117004041.0 010 $a9786612014017 010 $a9781282014015 010 $a1282014013 010 $a9781441106766 010 $a1441106766 035 $a(CKB)1000000000722336 035 $a(EBL)436194 035 $a(OCoLC)318155837 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC436194 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL436194 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10285126 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL201401 035 $a(OCoLC)893333990 035 $a(Perlego)805306 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000722336 100 $a20040421d2003 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn#nnn||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aResearch questions /$fRichard Andrews 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aLondon ;$aNew York $cContinuum$dc2003 215 $a1 online resource (xi, 89 pages) $cillustrations 225 1 $aContinuum research methods 311 08$a9780826464767 311 08$a0826464769 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 85-88) and index. 327 $a1.

Crucial starting points for research are often poorly conceived by students and researchers, resulting in problems as they work through the research and overall design and quality of the thesis, dissertation or research project. As students and researchers often spend six months to a year getting their research question right, this book will help set them on the right road. 410 0$aContinuum research methods series. 606 $aResearch$xMethodology 615 0$aResearch$xMethodology. 676 $a001.433 700 $aAndrews$b Richard$f1953 April 1-$01082222 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910968836103321 996 $aResearch questions$94541498 997 $aUNINA
