In this paper we describe the syntax of distance distributivity in Polish, where the challenge is to uniformly analyse a number of function lexemes PO 'each' which share their form and semantic contribution, but differ in their syntactic behaviour. To this end we employ the LFG mechanisms of templates and restriction, as well as the HPSG notion of weak heads.
