Revisiting (in)definiteness in Hindi
This study investigates the distribution of (in)definiteness expressed in Hindi bare nominals. Within a Neocarlsonian framework (Dayal 1992; 1999; 2004; 2018), Hindi bare nominals have kind readings like English plurals and additional indefinite and definite readings. Indefinite interpretations are reported to be more restricted for bare singulars than for bare plurals, creating a strong asymmetry between them. We demonstrate that Hindi bare sing…
Classifiers can be for numerals or nouns
This paper compares two families of theories for numeral classifiers drawing on fieldwork data from two languages, Ch’ol (Mayan, Mexico) and Shan (Kra-Dai, Myanmar). We discuss classifier-for-numeral theories and classifier-for-noun theories, which we argue make different predictions based on the syntactic position and semantic contribution of the classifier in each set of theories. We argue that Ch’ol is a classifier-for-numeral language and Sha…
Updating the typology of definiteness
This paper demonstrates that bare nouns in Shan (Tai-Kadai) can express both unique and anaphoric definiteness, a distinction first noted by Schwarz (2009). This pattern of data as well as similar patterns found in Serbian and Kannada motivate adding a category to the typology of definiteness marking described by Jenks (2018) to include languages that allow bare nouns to express anaphoric definiteness. An extended type-shifting analysis offers an…
