The author's previous paper in 'Magyar Nyelvor' discussed some errors, peculiarities, and curiosities of grammatical agreement governed by collective nouns. In the present paper, written with similar methods and aims, he turns to some particulars of the general issue of agreement that share 'quantity' as a common feature. The analysis is based on a data set collected between 1992 and 2003. First, agreement within the quantifier phrase, then (in the lengthiest part of the paper) agreement governed by a quantified noun, and finally, that governed by a quantifier (a numeral used as a noun or a pronoun referring to quantity) is considered.

The present paper scrutinises the intrinsic argumentative structure of Hyperides' Athenogenes-speech. Since the speaker cannot rely on solid juristic foundation (as his task was to annul a valid, undersigned contract), in order to influence his audience, he adopts a threefold method of argumentation. First, Hyperides produces an impressive list of irrelevant laws, then he launches a bitter invective against Athenogenes and finally, which plays the decisive role, he targets the jurors (his well trained fellow-spectators of comedy) with cleverly chosen comic reminiscences. Quite uniquely in the history of Attic eloquence, the orator - as his main weapon - creates a striking scenario (both events and characters) of contemporaneous comic choreography. This is proven by thematic and linguistic parallels. On the basis of the new reading of the papyrus [col. XVI,1] we can also re-evaluate the invective against Athenogenes.

This paper discusses the issues of grammatical agreement governed by collective nouns on the basis of a data set collected between 1992 and 2002. The author does not try to treat the emerging issues in their entirety: his attention is focused on errors, peculiarities, and curious examples. The analysis covers cases of clause-internal agreement as well as those of agreement spanning clause boundaries.
