| Citazioni | Perhaps all languages distinguish between “divided” and “undivided” reference […], i.e. between nouns which are quantified in the form "some 'x', a little 'x', much 'x'", and those which are quantified in the form "an 'x', one 'x', many 'x'". [...] The distinction also occurs among non-nouns, e.g. divided reference of verbs by means of punctual and iterative aspects [...]. |
