1 Here and throughout this chapter, we will avoid using (singular) indefinites as wide scope quantifiers. This is because the wide scope effect of indefinites can be obtained through a special pseudo-scoping mechanism – namely, choice functions (Kratzer, 1998, Reinhart, 1997) –, and not through the general truly scoping mechanisms that we are concerned with in this chapter. This pseudo-scoping ...

Many languages use syntactic sugar to define parts of their surface language in terms of a smaller core. Thus some properties of the surface language, like its scoping rules, are not immediately evident. Nevertheless, ides, refactorers, and other tools that traffic in source code depend on these rules to present information to users and to soundly perform their operations. In this paper, we sho...
