= For the next meeting =

== Revision ==

Correct/complete your user page and the page of your picture if necessary

== Glossary ==

Add a term to our glossary and create the corresponding entry.
* Name of your page: if you work on synonymy, then your page should be called Glossary:Synonym
* IPA symbols can be gained from: http://westonruter.github.com/ipa-chart/keyboard/ (thanks to [[User:Leo|Leo]] for the link!)

== Group ==

* Form a group of at most 5 people.
* Make sure you can exchange information within the group (exchange e-mail, ...)
* Decide on the topic for your group.
* Create the wikipage for your group. Your page should follow the pattern used by [[NMTS-Group0| Group 0]].
* Include at least three references that may help you work on your topic.

== Prepare a short presentation ==

Each group will give a 3 minute presentation on their topic:
# What is your group working on?
# Give one clear example.
# What is particularly difficult?

=== Short description of the topic ===


Quantifiers are words that precede and modify nouns; they indicate quantity.

There are different types of quantifiers which can be divided in quantifiers for count nouns and non-count nouns.

==== Comment ====

Count-nouns are regarded as individual, countable items:
e.g. tree

Non-count nouns are not countable, things that we regard as 'undifferentiated mass':
e.g. dancing, the water we spilled on the floor, one big mess

Nouns that can be either count or non-count nouns:
e.g. paper, stone, and cake
For instance, I can enter a bakery and say 'I want a cake' (an individual bakery product), or, before we enter, I can tell a friend that 'I want cake' and not refer to a specific cake but simply mean that the idea of eating cake appeals to me — any cake or piece of cake with chocolate frosting...

==== Examples ====

Quantifier expressions
*some
*both
*all
*everything
*nothing
*at least five
*most
*all but one
*less than half of the
*three books
*more...than
*John and Mary
*only John

Quantifiers that work with count nouns:

many / a few / several / a couple of / none of the trees

Quantifiers that work with non-count nouns:

not much / a little / a bit of / no dancing

Quantifiers that work with both count and non-count nouns:

all of the / some/ most of the / enough / a lot of trees / lots of / plenty of / a lack of trees/dancing
