Is coordination quantification?

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

We explore the semantics of conjunction using a neo-Davidsonian semantics expressed in a synchronous grammar. We propose to model conjunction as quantification over the set of conjoined entities, and discuss problems that arise in this approach when we have conjoined quantified noun phrases.
