Natural language to most of the noun phrase as the central common nouns, but common nouns can be added in front of the word limit. English determinative have "the" and "every" and so on, Chinese also have "this" "some" and "every" and other words of similar. Today's generalized quantifier theory restricted to single words or containing the noun phrase qualifier corresponds to the concept of modern logical quantifier, that limit or contain the word itself qualifier with the noun phrase to quantify the significance, and have quantified the meaning of the sentence on the sentence referred to as quantization.Classical predicate logic is also called the quantifier logical, they only concern universal quantifier and special weighing words, accordingly difficult to characterize the rich variety of quantitative significance which natural language quantifier or contains the noun phrase determinative possess. Generalized quantifier theory for this great expansion of the concept of a quantifier, not just "every" "some" quantifiers, such as commonly used semantic features, is also concerned about the "most" and "many", such as the situation of non-standard quantifiers; not only limited to a single word as a type <1.1> quantifiers to the research, also contains the noun phrase determiner as <1> types of classifiers to be explored. Not only concerned about the single-mode quantifier, also quantifier-depth study of the complex and diverse patterns.In this paper, generalized quantifier theory have been described in simple terms, at the same time the generalized quantifier theory have Significance for theoretical Linguistics, Summarized a variety of natural language expressions to quantify the nature of the semantic, natural language to answer our question of the expression of quantifier. In this paper, the term limit on the natural language of the Institute of tools based on the logic of generalized quantifier theory is also related to other types of logic tools, such as predicate logic technology; of the concept of generalized quantifier when the use of set theory, type theory andλ-conversion logic tools.
