det:numgov
: pronominal quantifier governing the case of the noun
Pronominal quantifiers in Slavic languages 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.
To increase parallelism across languages (and also across morphological cases within one language),
the quantifier is not annotated as the head of the nominal. However, the det:numgov
label is used
to preserve the information about case conditions.
