This article describes a novel pattern of interpretations associated with universal determiners like ‘each’ and ‘every’. It is demonstrated that these canonically distributive quantifiers can give rise to surprising collective readings when they quantify into sub-clausal constituents, especially other Determiner Phrases. For instance, ‘two cards from each player’ can be understood to pick out a single assorted deck of cards, one whose contents co-vary with the players. Yet this deck as a whole may be said to participate in a range of collective activities (being shuffled together, being traded en masse, not fitting into a standard pack, etc.). Such examples are shown to differ from more familiar cumulative readings of the same quantifiers. A compositional analysis is offered that generalizes Krifka’s (2001) method of quantification into speech acts in order to accommodate quantification into a larger class of non-truth-denoting semantic objects, including in these cases, entities.

本文描述了一种与通用限定词（如“每个”和“每个”）相关的新解释模式。已经证明，当这些规范的分配量词量化为从句成分时，尤其是其他限定词组，它们会引起令人惊讶的集体阅读。例如，“每个玩家的两张牌”可以理解为挑选出一副各种各样的牌，其中的内容与玩家共同变化。然而，这个套牌作为一个整体可以说参与了一系列集体活动（被洗牌、被集体交易、不适合标准包装等）。这样的例子显示出不同于更熟悉的累积相同量词的读数。提供了一种组合分析，将 Krifka (2001) 的量化方法推广到语音行为中，以便将量化纳入更大类别的非真实表示语义对象，包括在这些情况下的实体。
