Descriptors of NP internal structure
Description
This document provides a set of descriptors to be used in describing the internal structure of
the noun phrase across languages. As used by the author, a descriptor is a statement like,
"There is no plural marker." The author refers to a coherent set of descriptors as a "checklist",
which is roughly equivalent to "questionnaire" for other authors. In addition to developing the
proposed general checklist in outline, the author discusses the criteria adopted for the
evaluation of typological checklists. Three shorted special checklists for specific aspects
of NP internal structure are also included. The author applies the general checklist to Hungarian.
