Continuation Semantics for Multi-Quantifier Sentences : Operation-Based Approaches

Classical scope-assignment strategies for multi-quantifier sentences involve quantifier phrase (QP)-movement (e.g., [11], [12]). More recent continuation-based approaches provide a compelling alternative, for they interpret QPs in situ — without resorting to Logical Forms or any structures beyond the overt syntax. The continuation-based strategies can be divided into two groups: those that locate the source of scope-ambiguity in the rules of semantic composition (e.g., [1]) and those that attribute it to the lexical entries for the quantifier words (e.g., [2], [8]). In this paper, we focus on the former operation-based approaches and the nature of the semantic operations involved. More specifically, we discuss three such possible operation-based strategies for multi-quantifier sentences, together with their relative merits and costs.
