6. Interpretation of numerals under memory load by Vietnamese speakersAndreas Haida, Tue Trinh, Chi Mai Luong, 2019, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: Numerals show an ambiguity between a weak, ‘at least’ meaning and a strong, ‘exactly’ meaning. The Gricean approach takes the weak meaning to be basic and derives the strong meaning as implicature, thus assimilates numerals to other scalar items. The Fregean approach, in contrast, takes the strong meaning of numerals to be basic and derives the weak meaning via type shifting operations. This paper gives a brief summary of these two approaches, followed by a report on a dual-task experiment which is designed to test how Vietnamese speakers interpret numerals under different memory loads. The goal of this experiment is to replicate the results of Marty et al. (2013) which can be interpreted as supporting the Fregean approach. It turns out that this goal could not be achieved, and we give some speculations as to why it was not.

7. Zero and trivialityAndreas Haida, Tue Trinh, 2020, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This paper takes issue with Bylinina & Nouwen’s (2018) hypothesis that the numeral zero has the basic weak meaning of ‘zero or more.’ We argue, on the basis of empirical observation and theoretical consideration, that this hypothesis implies that exhaustification can circumvent L-triviality, and that exhaustification cannot circumvent L-triviality. We also provide some experimental results to support our argument.
Ključne besede: numerals, modification, exhaustification, L-Triviality

8. Splitting atoms in natural languageAndreas Haida, Tue Trinh, 2021, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: The classic Fregean analysis of numerical statements runs into problems with sentences containing non-integers such as John read 2.5 novels, since it takes such statements to specify the cardinality of a set which by definition must be a natural number. We propose a semantics for numeral phrases which allows us to count mereological subparts of objects in such a way as to predict several robust linguistic intuitions about these sentences. We also identify a number of open questions which the proposal fails to address and hence must be left to future research.

9. Advances in formal Slavic linguistics 20172020, zbornik recenziranih znanstvenih prispevkov na mednarodni ali tuji konferenci Opis: Advances in Formal Slavic Linguistics 2017 is a collection of fifteen articles that were prepared on the basis of talks given at the conference Formal Description of Slavic Languages 12.5, which was held on December 7-9, 2017, at the University of Nova Gorica. The volume covers a wide array of topics, such as control verbs, instrumental arguments, and perduratives in Russian, comparatives, negation, n-words, negative polarity items, and complementizer ellipsis in Czech, impersonal se-constructions and complementizer doubling in Slovenian, prosody and the morphology of multi-purpose suffixes in Serbo-Croatian, and indefinite numerals and the binding properties of dative arguments in Polish. Importantly, by exploring these phenomena in individual Slavic languages, the collection of articles in this volume makes a significant contribution to both Slavic linguistics and to linguistics in general.
Ključne besede: Slavic, linguistics, Formal Description of Slavic Languages, control verbs, instrumental arguments, perduratives, comparatives, negation, n-words, negative polarity items, complementizer ellipsis, impersonal se-constructions, complementizer doubling, indefinite numerals, binding, Russian, Czech, Slovenian, Serbo-Croatian, Polish

10. On the nature of prenumeral adjectivesFranc Marušič, Rok Žaucer, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci (vabljeno predavanje) Opis: Following Greenberg’s generalization 20 prenominal adjectives follow numerals. In
this paper we discuss a group of adjectives that appear in unexpected positions: adjectives
preceding numerals prenominally. We argue that these adjectives violate cross-linguistic
generalizations only apparently, as the noun phrases with such adjectives actually contain
additional covert structure – structure that is not realized phonologically/phonetically.
Ključne besede: Greenberg’s generalization 20, adjectives, numerals, noun phrase, Slovenian syntax
