While there is much prior linguistic literature on numerals, this literature has not considered the internal composition of complex cardinals: the tacit assumption has been that any syntactic or semantic account that captures the behavior of a simplex cardinal such as five automatically transfers to a complex cardinal such as five hundred or five thousand and forty-six. We show that this assumption is unwarranted, and propose a compositional semantic analysis of complex cardinals. This book considers a wide range of issues in the syntax and semantics of cardinals, investigates a wide variety of languages which use different syntactic structures for complex cardinals, and examines related phenomena, including modified numerals, measure nouns, and fractions. The ultimate objective of this work is to show that complex cardinals are not an extra-linguistic phenomenon (as has often been assumed), but can tell us as much about syntactic structure and semantic composition as other linguistic expressions"--$$cProvided by publisher. 001387648 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001387648 650_0 $$aGrammar, Comparative and general$$xNumerals. 001387648 650_0 $$aCardinal numbers. 001387648 653__ $$aLINGUISTICS & LANGUAGE/General 001387648 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001387648 7001_ $$aMatushansky, Ora,$$eauthor. 001387648 852__ $$bebk 001387648 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/8703.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001387648 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001387648 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1387648$$pGLOBAL_SET 001387648 980__ $$aBIB 001387648 980__ $$aEBOOK 001387648 982__ $$aEbook 001387648 983__ $$aOnline
