Introduction 327 $a2. Reanalysis and loss of the French determiners 330 $aWithin the framework of Chomsky's Minimalism and Formal Semantics, this work documents the development of the Mauritian Creole (MC) determiner system from the mid 18th century to the present. Guillemin proposes that the loss of the French quantificational determiners, which agglutinated to nouns, resulted in the occurrence of bare nouns in argument positions. This triggered a shift in noun denotation, from predicative in French to argumental in MC, and accounts for the very different determiner systems of the creole and its lexifier. MC nouns are lexically stored as Kind denoting terms, 410 0$aCreole language library ;$vv. 38. 606 $aCreole dialects, French$zMauritius$xGrammar 615 0$aCreole dialects, French$xGrammar. 676 $a447/.96982 686 $aID 9316$2rvk 700 $aGuillemin$b Diana$01484448 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781467303321 996 $aThe syntax and semantics of a determiner system$93703069 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01721cam a22003257i 4500 001 991003242519707536 005 20250430130201.0 008 950824n xx aef b 000 0 ita d 035 $ab1430269x-39ule_inst 035 $aCICOGNARA-A2013-0431$9ExL 040 $aBibl.
