quantifiers
Words for quantities
Quantifiers are words that indicate amount or quantity without specifying exact numbers: some, many, few, all, none, several, most.
They answer "how much?" or "how many?" without precision.
In logic and mathematics, quantifiers are symbols expressing whether a statement applies to all members of a set or just some: the universal quantifier (∀) and existential quantifier (∃).
