May 2020
 

In this squib I demonstrate that there is an explanation of the number marking we see on nouns when they combine with the numeral 'zero' which combines Martí’s (2020) account of the morphology and semantics of the numeral+noun construction with Bylinina and Nouwen’s (2018) semantics for 'zero' and which does not need to appeal to any further principles (e.g., agreement).
