What are definite and non-central determiners?

Definite determiners refer to specific nouns or noun phrases, indicating that the speaker is referring to a particular entity. Examples of definite determiners include "the" and "this."

Non-central determiners, on the other hand, do not refer to specific entities but rather provide additional information about the noun or noun phrase. Examples of non-central determiners include "some," "any," "many," and "several."
