Quantifier phrases (QP
)
Usually, quantifiers do no project a QP
and are host sisters to the noun which they modify.
A QP
is only projected when:
- A quantifier is not contained within an NP because it is extraposed.
- A quantifier within an NP is itself modified. TODO: insert example of this
(IP-MAT (NP-SBJ (PPER wi) (QP *ICH*-1) (VMFIN moten) (QP-1 (DIA alle) ← extraposed quantifier (PP (APPR van) (NP (DDARTA den) (NA gude) (VVINF leuen) )
Number phrases (NUMP
)
We follow the Penn scheme in using the label NUMP
for multi-word numbers, or numbers modified in some way:
(NUMP (CARDN hundert)
(KON vnde)
(CARDN dre)
(KON Vn)
(CARDN viftich)
)
Note that the internal structure of NUMP
is typically flat.
