Canonical 6-Element Quantifier Paradigm #
@cite{barwise-cooper-1981} @cite{van-tiel-franke-sauerland-2021}
The canonical ⟨none, few, some, half, most, all⟩ scale used cross-paper
to evaluate quantifier theories — empirical implicature studies
(@cite{van-tiel-franke-sauerland-2021}), GQ universals
(@cite{barwise-cooper-1981}), polarity bridges
(@cite{von-fintel-1993}), and cross-linguistic typology. Lives at the
top level of Phenomena/Quantification/ because it is genuinely
cross-paper data, not study-specific.
Key definitions #
QuantityWord— the 6-element enumQuantityWord.entry— projection to the EnglishQuantifierEntryQuantityWord.monotonicity— convenience accessorQuantityWord.gqDenotation— canonical model-theoretic denotation (B&C-style), built onevery_sem/some_sem/no_sem/etc. fromTheories.Semantics.Quantification.Quantifier.
Per-paper PT/GQT parameter values (thresholds, prototypes, spreads)
live in the relevant Studies/ files, not here.
