Abstract:

Due to their flexibility in interpretation, the use of indefinites and
other quantificational expressions is highly variable and subject to
dynamic processes of language change.
The present volume addresses fundamental linguistic questions about
language  variation and change in Romance quantificational
expressions. It focuses on quantificational expressions in language
varieties that have not received much attention in the previous
literature, such as Old Sardinian, Argentinian Spanish, Palenquero
Creole and Cabindan Portuguese, Catalan, Romanian, and others. The
studies included in this volume offer new data on these processes of
variation and advance theoretical discussions about language variation
and change.

Linguistic Field(s): Semantics
