We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Subject:  aspectual role of direct objects

I am looking at the role of direct objects in determining the
availability of delimited/telic vs. undelimited/atelic aspectual
readings of an expression. While a great deal of work has been done on
the effect of the quantization of the direct object (i.e., mass/bare
plural vs. count noun), I have found very little addressing the
following two distinctions:

a) mass noun vs. bare plural (both of which would be non-quantized)

b) definite vs. indefinite  (both of which would be quantized)

I would be grateful if anyone can point me to work on either of these topics.

Hi, I am looking for a list of Turkish frequent words (up to 500
words). Is there such a list in electronic version available
somewhere? Thank you for your kind information.
