Popis | In this paper, we present experimental evidence concerning 3 classes of derived collectives in Czech and Polish. The results of the experiment suggest the existence of a scale of decomposability involving distinct types of collective nouns, bare plurals, and distributive quantifier phrases. We attribute the observed semantic effects to the interplay of 2 factors, i.e., agreement and animacy. |
