Sažetak
Quantified utterances (e.g. Some eggs have been eaten, All candles have been lit up etc.) have been studied in logic for more than two thousand years. However, a question of how language users process quantified utterances is a relatively new pragmatic/semantic topic. In this study we tried to find out how language users resolve vague quantified expressions that have a form "Some A's are B's".
