Original<\/dt>\n
No language has a trial number unless it has a dual. No language has a dual unless it has a plural.<\/dd>\n
Standardized<\/dt>\n
IF there is a trial, THEN there is also a dual.
IF there is a dual, THEN there is also a plural.<\/p>\n

OR, BY CONTRAPOSITION:
IF there is no dual, THEN there is no trial.
IF there is no plural, THEN there is no dual.<\/dd>\n

Counterexamples<\/dt>\n
Northeastern Maidu (Maiduan) (Dixon 1911: 709) is not a counterexample in the strictest sense since indeed there are markers for both plural and dual (in nouns). Yet the dual marker is used more frequently than the plural one, albeit on a very low level: the use of either is rare anyway (Plank 1989: 318).<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
