چکیده
In this paper we studied the interpretation of sentences with Dutch universal quantifiers alle ( all ) and elke each in collective, distributive cumulative situations. first experiment, 25 adults 30 children from 5 6 years old performed a truth-value judgement task. Adults show similar interpretations for collective distributive, but perform different cumulative. As follow-up preference Participants gave their preferences three situations both quantifiers. Children, regardless quantifier, prefer situation. have strong , showing wider range . These data clearly indicate that do not yet acquired full restrictions

Distributive and Collective Readings in Group Protocols
Collaborative applications require protocols that specify how distributed entities interact with one another in order to achieve a specified behavior. Many different kinds of relationships can be established between these entities as a result of such interactions. Distributive and Collective readings are two important ways to characterize group interaction. Starting from an attempt-based semant...
متن کاملThe Distributive Entailments of Collective Predicates
This paper deals with predicates that allow both collective and dis-tributive construals when combined with a plural subject. I present evidence that even on the collective construal, these predicates entail downward from groups to their members, and use this result as the basis of an attempt to resurrect Har-nish's pragmatic analysis of exhaustiveness ((Harnish, 1976]). I then incorporate the ...

the present study was an attempt to conduct a contrastive analysis between general english (ge) and english for specific purposes (esp) texts in terms of cohesion and cohesive devices. to this end, thirty texts from different esp and ge textbooks were randomly selected. then they were analyzed manually to find the frequency of cohesive devices. cohesive devices include reference, substitution, ...

In addition to the "traditional" proteins characterized by the unique crystal-like structures needed for unique functions, it is increasingly recognized that many proteins or protein regions (collectively known as intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDPRs)), being biologically active, do not have a specific 3D-structure in their unbound states ...
متن کاملResolution of Collective-Distributive Ambiguity Using Model-Based Reasoning
I present a semantic analysis of collective-distributive ambiguity, and resolution of such ambiguity by model-based reasoning. This approach goes beyond Scha and Stallard [17], whose reasoning capability was limited to checking semantic types. My semantic analysis is based on Link [14, 13] and Roberts [15], where distributivity comes uniformly from a quantificational operator, either explicit (...
