From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

Query:   Is anybody aware of research on the typology of noun classifier use?
I have seen some information on the use of noun classifiers with numerals,
but I'm particularly interested in other uses, such as in possessive
constructions, relative clauses, and demonstrative forms.
I'd appreciate information on these or any other uses. I'll post a summary.

Thanks,
Lisa Johnson
