Zusammenfassung: Statements such as ‘This house is too expensive for me to buy’, ‘Jim is old enough to join the Navy’, and similar and related statements, have to do with excess and sufficiency. They are connected in meaning systematically enough to sustain their own local logic.

This paper examines this hitherto virtually unexplored area, providing examples, analysis, axioms and modelsPPN: PPN: 1983971707Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-94-OAB
