Countability indicators

Marija Znika ; Institut za hrvatski jezik i jezikoslovlje

Sažetak

The paper analyses the category of countability of nouns, and refers to quantifiers (malo, mnogo, dosta) as detectors of whether a monosemic noun is countable or not. The quantifiers also indicate whether semantic restructuring has turned an originally uncountable polysemic noun into a countable one in any of its meanings. The results of the study can be used for more accurate lexicographic analysis, as well as in grammatical description because not only do they provide a semantically independent, morphologically feasible noun paradigm, but also an applicationally valid, semantically founded noun paradigm.
