As a corpus-based typological cognitive study of English binominal quantitative expressions based on English-Chinese comparison, the book discovers functional equivalents of Chinese numeral classifiers in English, i.e. ‘Quasi-Numeral Classifiers’ (QNCs) and unveils the categorisation process reflected by five cases of Dimensionality-based QNCs.
