Abstract: | In this talk I will present work in progress that I am conducting in collaboration with Furkan Dikmen and Penka Stateva. In this study, we develop a novel account for the ban of Turkish -lAr with numerals. This view builds on the pragmatic theories of the interpretation of the plural as an anti-singularity inference (see Sauerland 2003, Spector 2007, and Sauerland 2008) and presents the following advantages over Martí (2020)’s and Scontras (2022)’s previous accounts: it preserves the “at least” interpretation of Turkish numerals and at the same time it predicts the lack of plurality inferences in DE contexts, first reported in Sağ 2019.
Research funded by the ARIS project J6-3130- PI Prof. Artur Stefanov, University of Nova Gorica, Slovenia
