det:numgov: pronominal quantifier governing the case of the noun

Pronominal quantifiers are labeled det:numgov instead of det because they normally do not agree with the quantified noun in case (unlike non-quantifying determiners).

The quantifier requires the counted noun to be in its genitive form. The whole phrase (quantifier + noun) is treated as a singular neuter noun phrase and it can fill roles where nominative, accusative or vocative noun phrases are expected.

Such situations are analyzed in PDT so that the quantifier (numeral) is the head and the noun depends on it. In UD the dependency direction is reversed and the det:numgov label is used to preserve the information about case conditions.

See nummod for a broader discussion of the various situations with quantifiers.
