In this paper, we have examined the binding behavior of two types of anaphoric forms. We have argued that the plural anaphoric forms and pro readily admit a bound variable interpretation, whereas singular anaphoric forms rarely do it. This phenomenon is mostly observed in some languages. The results observed in this paper confirm that there are specialized anaphoric forms corresponding to quantifiers. However, the real picture of the interpretive distinction between singular forms and plural forms is not that simple in light of English. Furthermore, our observation is only limited to some languages. Another observation made in this paper is the problem of complementary distribution, one of the empirical problems raised in the binding theory. We demonstrate that when anaphors and pronominals are not in complementary distribution, they are not identically interpreted. We have argued that it is justified by the requirement of the Semantic Competition Principle. However even so, we know nothing about what the syntactic condition of that phenomenon is. We will leave it for further research.
