DET: determiner

Definition

Determiners are words that modify nouns or noun phrases and express the reference of the noun phrase in context. That is, a determiner may indicate whether the noun is referring to a definite or indefinite element of a class, to a closer or more distant element, to an element belonging to a specified person or thing, to a particular number or quantity, etc.

The traditional grammar of Slovenian does not define determiners as a separate word class. Instead, words that perform the syntactic function of determiners are either categorizied as adverbs (nekaj “some”, veliko “a lot of”, dovolj “enough of” etc.) or pronouns (ta “this”, ves “all”, moj “my”, vsak “each” etc.), regardless of whether they are used as attributives (To.DET besedilo je nerazumljivo. “This text is incomprehensible.”) or substantives (To.PRON sem že slišal. “I have heard this before.”).

Conversion from JOS

Since JOS morphosyntactic specifications do not distinguish substantive and attributive pronouns or quantifying and other adverbs, the conversion is done based on syntactic information. The pronouns modifying a noun are thus marked as DET, otherwise they are marked as PRON. Similarly, the list of adverbs modifying a noun was manually validated to define a closed set of quantifying adverbs marked as DET.

Examples

• njegov “his”, njen “her”, naš “our”, njihov “their”, _moj “my”, _vaš “your” etc. (JOS possessive pronouns)
• ta “this”, tisti “that”, takšen “such”, tak “such”, _tolikšen “so big” etc. (JOS demonstrative pronouns)
• ves “all”, vsak “each”, oba “both”, vsakršen “any” (JOS general pronouns)
• svoj “one’s own” (JOS reflexive pronouns)
• nekateri “some”, nek “some kind”, isti “identical”, enak “same”, mnog “many” (JOS indefinite pronouns)
• kakšen “what kind”, kateri “what type”, čigav “whose” (JOS interrogative pronouns)
• noben “no one”, nikakršen “no kind”, nič “nothing” (JOS negative pronouns)
• kakršenkoli “any kind of”, katerikoli “any type of”, čigar “whose” (JOS relative pronouns)
• nekaj “some”, več “more”, veliko “a lot of”, dovolj “enough of”, pol “half of”, malo “little of” (JOS adverbs)
