bokmål NP

Dyvik's analysis (based on Vangsnes 1999) looks more or less like:

NOM = { Prop | PRON | AllQP | DP | PossP | QuantP | NP } 

AllQP    →  allq ({ DP  | PossP | QuantP | NP }) 
DP       →         det ({ PossP | QuantP | NP }) 
PossP    → { Poss |  NOM<gen> } ({ QuantP | NP }) 
QuantP   →    { QP | num | art }    qnt    (NP)
NP       →                            AP*   n   (poss)  (CP)

(This is flattened a lot and disregards f-structure.) Assuming AP gives adj, we get:

[AllQP alle<allq> [DP disse<det> [PossP dine<poss> [QuantP mange<qnt> [NP gode<adj> år<n> [CP som gikk] ] ] ] ] ]

[AllQP [QuantP mange<qnt> ] ] 

and so on, but this doesn't allow "Gi meg mange raske (*som gikk)" or "Gi meg alle de raske (som gikk)", so the NP needs to be more lax on the presence of n.
