`NUM`: numeral

Definition

A numeral is a word, functioning most typically as a determiner or pronoun, that expresses a number and a relation to the number, such as quantity, sequence, frequency or fraction.

Cardinal numerals are covered by NUM regardless of syntactic function and regardless of whether they are expressed as words (fyra “four”), digits (4) or Roman numerals (IV). By contrast, ordinal numerals are always tagged ADJ.

Note that in Swedish the decimal mark is most often a comma. Thousands are then separated by either a space or dot.

Morphology

The form / lemma ratio of NUM is 1.004141 (the average of all parts of speech is 1.421413).

The 1st highest number of forms (2) was observed with the lemma “1”: 1, 1).

The 2nd highest number of forms (2) was observed with the lemma “en”: en, ett.

The 3rd highest number of forms (2) was observed with the lemma “tre”: tre, tre-.

NUM occurs with 4 features: sv-feat/Case (1725; 99% instances), sv-feat/Definite (92; 5% instances), sv-feat/Gender (92; 5% instances), sv-feat/Number (92; 5% instances)

NUM occurs with 5 feature-value pairs: Case=Nom, Definite=Ind, Gender=Com, Gender=Neut, Number=Sing

NUM occurs with 4 feature combinations. The most frequent feature combination is Case=Nom (1633 tokens). Examples: två, tre, 1, 20, 2, en, 1970, 3, 10, 1971
