Oliver
(in the nursery) spent considerable
time at a whiteboard relating a
story - whilst rapidly drawing
numerous dots to signify ‘lots of
baddies’. He then rapidly drew
multiple circles around and over the
dots, saying ‘The dragon is
fighting the baddies!’
Oliver’s
many marks (referred to as ‘lots
of’) are a quantifier signifying
many or a large quantity.
