This paper primarily provides an alternative analysis for the quantifier every combined with a plural numeral noun phrase, criticizing Landman (2004), who claims that the quantifier every exceptionally forms a complex determiner with a numeral that follows it against the general structure that he advocates for a numeral expression. His analysis applies a group-forming operation at an intuitively inappropriate level and, as a result, must apply a member-specifying operation unnecessarily. Instead, I argue that the group-forming operation must apply to the entire phrase that comprises a numeral and a noun phrase. Then, the quantifier every as a pluralization operator applies to the group. Extending the analysis to the case where every combines with a temporal adverbial phrase, I provide a further evidence for the existence of group events that can be not only semantically but also theoretically attested.
Abstract
This paper primarily provides an alternative analysis for the quantifier every combined with a plural numeral noun phrase, criticizing Landman (2004), who claims that the quantifier every exceptionally forms a complex determiner with a numeral that follows it against the general structure that he advocates for a numeral expression. His analysis applies a group-forming operation at an intuitively inappropriate level and, as a result, must apply a member-specifying operation unnecessarily. Instead, I argue that the group-forming operation must apply to the entire phrase that comprises a numeral and a noun phrase. Then, the quantifier every as a pluralization operator applies to the group. Extending the analysis to the case where every combines with a temporal adverbial phrase, I provide a further evidence for the existence of group events that can be not only semantically but also theoretically attested.
