Quantification in Bodo

This article explores the morphological composition of Bodo quantifiers. Based on their morphological features, Bodo quantifiers can be broadly categorized into core and morphologically derived complex quantifiers. Both quantifiers are further divided into Classifier:type-numeral, Classifier:type-how.much/many, Classifier:type-each/every, Classifier:cycle.of.action-numeral, Interrogative=Indefinite, and Non-classifier/Indefinite quantifier. In addition, the article discusses the morpheme or structure used for comparison. This article uses Partee’s (1995) and Keenan’s (2017) A-type and D-type classifications to look at these quantifiers’ morpho-syntactic structure and distribution.
