Workshop and Conference on Cross-Linguistic Quantification to be held June 26- August 4, 1989 at the 1989 Linguistic Institute at the University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona

亚利桑那大学1989年语言研究所将举办为期六周的研讨会和相关的为期一天的会议，讨论量词的句法和语义，特别强调跨语言的研究。研究的一个中心焦点将是用限定词表示的量词和用副词、助动词和动词词缀表示的量词之间的异同。将对某些非印欧语言给予相当的关注，这些语言似乎很少或根本不使用限定词进行定量。为期六周的研讨会将于6月26日至8月4日举行，将是一个封闭的工作组，由三名组织者和大约13名受邀学者组成，他们代表了广泛的语言专业知识和相当多的理论框架。在研究所的一个星期六期间，将有一个为期一天的研讨会主题的会议，由研讨会参与者介绍，并向所有感兴趣的人开放。研讨会和会议的主题与由同样的三名研究人员在国家科学基金会的支持下进行的一个为期3年的项目的主题密切相关。

ABSTRACT A six-week workshop and associated one-day conference are to be conducted at the 1989 Linguistic Institute at the University of Arizona on the syntax and semantics of quantification, with special emphasis on cross-Linguistic investigation. A central focus of investigation will be the similarities and differences between quantification expressed with determiners and quantification expressed with adverbs, auxiliary verbs, and verbal affixes. Considerable attention will be paid to certain non-Indo-European languages which appear to make little or no use of determiners for essentially quantificational purposes. The six-week workshop, June 26- August 4, 1989, will be a closed working group with three organizers and approximately thirteen invited scholars representing a wide range of language expertise and considerable variety of theoretical frameworks. There will be a one-day conference on the topic of the workshop on a saturday during the Institute, presented by the workshop participants, and open to everyone interested. The topics of the workshop and conference are closely tied to the topics of a 3-year project being undertaken by the same three investigators with NSF support.
