This study presents a unified, economic account of the intricate
relationship between form, meaning and interpretation in the
Norwegian nominal system – without reference to polysemy. It
covers all kinds of nominal signs, i.e. nouns, adjectives,
pronouns and determiners, as well as the conventionalised
syntactic combinations between them. Among its central
innovations is the introduction of the feature general number
into Norwegian morphology.
