Languages of Ea: February 2010

Conlanging, in plain English. Sunday, February 7, 2010. All, every, each. I have decided on a simple scheme for non-numeric quantifiers in Mirexu. It is not the degrees of quantification that I was concerned with. Whether there will be more degrees than "all, none, some" . "enough"? I can leave till later. The distinction that I needed to figure out how to capture was distributionality. In English, it is the difference between "all" and "each" or "every". Now what could be the distributive of "none"?
