Quantificational Determiners and Distributive Predicates

초록

It has been suggested in the linguistics literature that quantification and distributivity are closely related phenomena and some linguists claimed that distributivity should be marked on quantifiers(determiners) as well as on predicates. I would challenge the claim that quantificational determiners should be classified in terms of distributivity. I suggest, on the empirical grounds, that distributivity is essentially a phenomenon over(one-place) predicates in a broad sense.
