Generalized quantifiers

Generalized quantifiers extend traditional notions like "all" or "some" to capture more nuanced statements about quantities. For example, instead of just saying "some," a generalized quantifier can specify "most," "many," or "at least half." They allow us to express and analyze complex linguistic ideas about how much of a group possesses a certain property, going beyond simple yes/no or all/none distinctions. These quantifiers help in formal logic and linguistics to better understand and describe the expressive power of natural language regarding quantities and proportions.
