Modern grammarians define a class of words called determiners.

Determiner (限定詞) is a word which indicates the kind of reference a noun phrase has. Determiner comes before a noun.

Determiners include words like a, the, some, my, his, each, those, which, several which express a range of meanings.

Determiners include:
Indefinite article (a book, an egg)
Definite article (the book)
Possessive (my book, John’s book)
Demonstrative (this book, that book, these books, those books)
Quantifier (each/every book, many/few books, all books, both books, enough books, several books, no books)
Numeral (one book, second book)
Wh- words (what, whose, which)

Sometimes more than one determiner occurs in the same noun phrase (all the books)

Determiners help the reader or listener in determining which person, place, thing, or idea is named by the noun phrase that the writer or speaker has written or spoken.

Determiners are traditionally classed along with adjectives, but modern grammarians treat them separately as a word class from adjectives.

Quantifier 是 Determiner 其中一種類.限定詞是指放在名詞前面, 並修飾名詞的字眼
