A Generalized Inquisitive Semantics. Ciardelli, I. 2008. Term paper, University of Amsterdam![A Generalized Inquisitive Semantics [pdf]](https://bibbase.org/img/filetypes/pdf.svg "pdf")
Paper abstract bibtex 3 downloads In Inquisitive Semantics, formulas are evaluated on ordered pairs of indices; actually, the order of the pair is irrelevant, so these pairs could just just as well be taken to be non-empty sets of indices of cardinality at most two. This last restriction, however, sounds particularly unnatural, especially considering that the definition of inquisitive semantics can be easily reformulated in such a way that it is meaningful for any non-empty set of indices. In this little paper I investigate the consequences of undertaking this generalized approach. In section 1 I introduce the generalized inquisitive semantics, I reformulate the notions of standard inquisitive semantic for this extended setting, and I prove many basic properties of the system, most of which are the analogue of properties of inquisitive logic.
