Abstract

The use of default logic to represent various linguistic constructions is explored in this paper. Default logic is then integrated into a theory of natural language semantics, namely Generalized Quantifiers. Finally, properties of interest to the AI community such as the characterization of truth persistence and some inferential patterns are emphasized.
