2. Grammatical modifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_modifier

   In linguistics, a modifier is an optional element in phrase structure or clause structure [1] which modifies the meaning of another element in the structure. For instance, the adjective "red" acts as a modifier in the noun phrase "red ball", providing extra details about which particular ball is being referred to.

3. Logical form (linguistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_form_(linguistics)

   This quantifier is satisfied with more than 1 instance of a girl being tall. Example c. Every girl has a truth value of true iff every girl is tall. This quantifier requires for all girls, that every instance of a person being female, she must be tall. Example d. No girl has a truth value of true iff no girl is tall.

4. Generalized quantifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_quantifier

   In formal semantics, a generalized quantifier (GQ) is an expression that denotes a set of sets. This is the standard semantics assigned to quantified noun phrases . For example, the generalized quantifier every boy denotes the set of sets of which every boy is a member: { X ∣ ∀ x ( x is a boy → x ∈ X ) } {\displaystyle \{X\mid \forall x ...

5. Quantifier (logic) - Wikipedia

However, both mass and count nouns can be quantified in relative terms without unit specification (e.g., "so much water", "so many chairs", though note the different quantifiers "much" and "many").

7. Conservativity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservativity

   In formal semantics conservativity is a proposed linguistic universal which states that any determiner must obey the equivalence (,) (,).For instance, the English determiner "every" can be seen to be conservative by the equivalence of the following two sentences, schematized in generalized quantifier notation to the right.

8. Glossary of logic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_logic

   A quantifier that operates within a specific domain or set, as opposed to an unbounded or universal quantifier that applies to all elements of a particular type. branching quantifier A type of quantifier in formal logic that allows for the expression of dependencies between different quantified variables, representing more complex relationships ...

9. Classifier (linguistics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classifier_(linguistics)

   Quantifiers which require a classifier include ทุก (thuk, every) บาง (bang, some). This is also the case of approximations e.g. หมาบางตัว ( ma bang tua , some dogs). Negative quantification is simply expressed by adding ไม่มี ( mai mi , there are not) in front of the noun.
