I remember my prof telling me about this. I'm pretty sure she must have published it somewhere. Though I'm not sure about the 8% figure and I don't know what sample she used. The context was Standard Average European from a typological perspective, that definite articles was kind of a European phenomenon. I'll ask her about it as soon as possible. ||| daniel -- "You can't post that on the Internet, you don't even know if it's true!" - Lisa Simpson to Homer.
