520    In light of recent generative minimalism, and comparative 
       parametric theory of language variation, the book 
       investigates key features and parameters of Arabic 
       grammar. Part I addresses morpho-syntactic and semantic 
       interfaces in temporality, aspectuality, and actionality, 
       including the Past/Perfect/Perfective ambiguity akin to 
       the very synthetic temporal morphology, collocating time 
       adverb construal, and interpretability of verbal Number as
       pluractional. Part II is dedicated to nominal architecture,
       the behaviour of bare nouns as true indefinites, the count
       /mass dichotomy (re-examined in light.
