TY - JOUR T1 - Are Quantifier Phrases Always Quantificational? The Case of ‘Every F’ JF - Organon F Y1 - 2013 A1 - Baumann, Pierre KW - Determiners KW - Generalized Quantifier Theory KW - Gricean pragmatics KW - quantifiers KW - reference AB - This paper argues that English quantifier phrases of the form ‘every F’ admit of a literal referential interpretation, contrary to the standard semantic account of this expression, according to which it denotes a set and a second-order relation. Various arguments are offered in favor of the referential interpretation, and two likely objections to it are forestalled.
