      An attempt at finding syntactical means for formulating logical laws obeyed by such natural language determiners as ``many'', ``most'', ``few'', ``more than'', \dots. A special language is introduced which is constructed as an extension of the first-order predicate language; the expressivity of this extension is, however, acquired via mixed use of objectual and substitutional quantifiers.
