NUM
: numeral
Definition
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.
Note that cardinal numerals are covered by NUM
whether they are used
as determiners or not (as in Windows Seven) and whether they
are expressed as words (four), digits (4) or Roman numerals
(IV). Other words functioning as determiners (including quantifiers
such as many and few) are tagged DET.
In Bultreebank tagset the tag which maps to NUM
, is Mc#
