Abstract

V originále

bring some corpus/stats evidence for a carefully optimistic stance of deriving some semantic properties of abstract mass nouns from their base verbs lexical-semantic clues: odds ratio of atelic/telic deverbal nouns is nearly the same as the odds ratio of Sg/Pl in nominal count/mass landscape • morphological clues: -ní/-tí nominalizations are 45 times less probable to be pluralized than nonCEN nominalizations
