Abstract
Pietroski’s model of semantic composition is introduced and compared to the standard type hierarchy. Particular focus is then given to Pietroski’s account of quanti fi cation. The question is raised of how the model might account for the weak/strong distinction in natural language quanti fi cation. A number of options are addressed and one proposal is tentatively recommended.
