Beschreibung
This volume presents a cognitive-functional analysis of binominal quantifiers in Spanish. The leitmotiv underlying the case studies is the iconicity principle, i.e. the motivated, non-arbitrary nature of syntax. Conceptually-driven analogy is shown to be, diachronically, the triggering mechanism in the development of the construction and, synchronically, the guiding principle in its combinatorial pattern.
