This study provides a systematic overview of articles and article
systems in the world's languages using a sample of 104 languages.
Articles can be classified into 10 types according to their
referential functions: definite, anaphoric, weak definite,
recognitional, indefinite, presentational, exclusive-specific,
nonspecific, inclusive-specific, and referential articles. All 10
types are described in detail with examples from various languages
of the world. The book also addresses crosslinguistic trends
concerning the distribution and the development of different
article types, and it proposes a typology of article systems. The
aim of this study is to provide a general crosslinguistic overview
concerning the attested properties and distributions of articles.
It is geared towards readers with interests in language typology
and the nominal domain, and it can serve as a point of reference
for language-specific studies of articles or determiners.
