NUM: numeral

Description

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

Irish numbers are split into three categories: cardinal, ordinal and personal. The personal form is used for counting people. All three forms differ in spelling.

Examples


Treebank Statistics (UD_Irish)

There are 146 NUM lemmas (4%), 167 NUM types (3%) and 321 NUM tokens (1%). Out of 16 observed tags, the rank of NUM is: 6 in number of lemmas, 6 in number of types and 13 in number of tokens.

The 10 most frequent NUM lemmas: dó, céad, trí, ceathair, seacht, aon, 1, sé, 1997, dara

The 10 most frequent NUM types: dhá, chéad, trí, céad, seacht, dá, 1, 1997, aon, ceithre
