Tang (1987) has found that in a DE phrase (XP+DE+NP), an indefinite quantifier is not allowed to occur before the head noun (the position after DE) when the phrase before DE is a subject relativized relative clause. Liou (2008) further discovered that when the XP before DE is a common noun or an adjective, it also disallows an indefinite quantifier occurring before a head noun of a DE construction. She concludes that whether or not an indefinite occurs before the head noun varies according to how specific the XP is. That is, when the reference of an XP is specific, it allows an indefinite quantifier to occur before the head noun; if the reference of an XP is not specific, it does not allow an indefinite quantifier to occur before the head noun. Following Liou (2008), this paper further examines Liou's observation and also examines whether the issue Liou discovered occurs in Vietnamese. Although the word order of Chinese and Vietnamese is different, the study gives evidence that the interpretation of the relationship between noun phrases and indefinite quantifiers in the two languages show amazing similarities.
