Add to ORKGIn languages like English, bare nominals are only used in special constructions, and they come with special meaning effects.

The syntactic unmarkedness of bare nominals is embedded in a constraint-based typology of number, article use and referentiality. The semantic unmarkedness of the stereotypical interpretation falls out of the strongest meaning hypothesis
