Time Span: 1991 - 1994

This project concerns the semantics of temporal and quantifying expressions in natural languages. It uses the methods of model-theoretic semantics, esp. of Generalised Quantifier Theory, and follows a universalist approach. Special attention is paid to applications in machine translation.
