	A restricted quantifier always has a reference quantity and therefore points out a proportion of a set and not the proportion of everything there is.		A restricted quantifier always has a reference quantity and therefore points out '''a proportion of a set''' and not the proportion of everything there is.
	It is a natural language quantifier like ''most, few, many'' or ''several'' and is expressed in the notation of restricted quantification.		It is a natural language quantifier like '''''most, few, many''''' or '''''several''''' and is expressed in the notation of restricted quantification.
