Distributive numerals in Basque

Distributive numerals in Basque are marked by the suffix -na on the numeral. In Basque, noun phrases with distributive numerals require a lexically realised plural licensor. We examine the syntactic distribution of num+na DPs and present some restrictions on the possible licensors for Basque distributive numerals against the backdrop of distributive numeral constructions in other languages described in the literature.
