Abstract:

The book focusses on the grammatical feature definiteness in German, visible
in the inflection of adjectives (“ein schön-es Kind” vs. “das schön-e Kind”).
It argues for an analysis of this effect that draws a connection to the
visible categories of number and gender on nouns and related words rather than
an abstract property. This conclusion rests on the conflation of the
established grammatical categories into a single one, number-gender, which
explains a vast body of grammatical phenomena in German and principles of
language in general.
