Subject: Survey on Countability of Formally Plural English Nouns

 
I am collecting data regarding the countability of (near-)minimal pairs of
formally plural English nouns (e.g. soldiers-troops).

For this purpose, I am looking for native monolingual English speakers to
complete this survey: https://forms.gle/Xxk5vLHGWVKPnu519

If you are not a native monolingual English speaker and wish to peek at the
survey, you may lie in the first questions. If you submit your answers, let me
know in the last section that you have lied.

Anyone is welcome to e-mail me questions and comments about the survey in
particular and topic in general.
 

Linguistic Field(s): Semantics

Subject Language(s): English (eng)
