The author investigates scope behavior of ordinary quantifiers and negative, adverbial, interrogative, relative and particle quantifiers. The areas which are dealt with include: relative scope in simple sentences, absolute and relative scope in complex sentences, noun-phrase internal scope, and scope behavior of indefinite noun phrases. A theory of explicit and implicit quantification is proposed and a uniform process of scope determination is sketched which encompasses the scope of explicit as well as implicit quantifiers. Quantifier scope is a challenge to linguistic theory as it is a phenomenon which is determined by the interplay of diverse syntactic and semantic factors, which interact in a weighted and cumulative way. The factors' interplay is part of the syntax/semantics-interface, i.e., the constraints relating syntax and semantics, which are considered to be relatively autonomous, parallel levels connected by an interface of correspondence constraints. 410 0$aLinguistik aktuell ;$vBd. 84. 606 $aGerman language$xQuantifiers 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xQuantifiers 606 $aGerman language$xSyntax 615 0$aGerman language$xQuantifiers. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xQuantifiers. 615 0$aGerman language$xSyntax. 676 $a435 700 $aPafel$b Ju?rgen$f1957-$01800882 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910964947203321 996 $aQuantifier scope in German$94345838 997 $aUNINA
