There are 688 NUM lemmas (3%), 693 NUM types (2%) and 3962 NUM tokens (1%). Out of 17 observed tags, the rank of NUM is: 5 in number of lemmas, 5 in number of types and 14 in number of tokens.

The 10 most frequent NUM lemmas: to, tre, én, fire, eneste, 2, fem, ti, 20, seks

The 10 most frequent NUM types: to, tre, fire, eneste, ett, 2, fem, ti, 20, seks

The 10 most frequent ambiguous lemmas: to (NUM 356, X 11), tre (NUM 174, NOUN 10, VERB 7), 2 (NUM 84, PROPN 1), 3 (NUM 51, PROPN 1), hundre (NUM 15, NOUN 13), null (NUM 11, NOUN 1), tusen (NOUN 25, NUM 11), 32 (NUM 7, X 1), 34 (NUM 5, X 1), fire-fem (NUM 3, DET 1)

Morphology

The form / lemma ratio of NUM is 1.007267 (the average of all parts of speech is 1.382778).

The 1st highest number of forms (3) was observed with the lemma “én”: ett, Èn, én.

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

The 3rd highest number of forms (2) was observed with the lemma “2011”: 2011, 2011s.

NUM occurs with 5 features: NumType (3962; 100% instances), Number (3759; 95% instances), Gender (164; 4% instances), Definite (137; 3% instances), Case (3; 0% instances)

NUM occurs with 8 feature-value pairs: Case=Gen, Definite=Def, Gender=Fem, Gender=Masc, Gender=Neut, NumType=Card, Number=Plur, Number=Sing

NUM occurs with 9 feature combinations. The most frequent feature combination is Number=Plur|NumType=Card (3519 tokens). Examples: to, tre, fire, 2, fem, ti, 20, seks, 3, 50

2455 (62%) NUM nodes are leaves.

943 (24%) NUM nodes have one child.

385 (10%) NUM nodes have two children.

179 (5%) NUM nodes have three or more children.

The highest child degree of a NUM node is 11.
