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#.

Examples

Note that the symbol `#’, used in the Universal POS section indicates a holder for arbitrary number of features, suppressed in the respective tag as irrelevant in the BulTreeBank tagset, when mapped to the Universal one.


Treebank Statistics (UD_Bulgarian)

There are 414 NUM lemmas (3%), 449 NUM types (2%) and 2104 NUM tokens (1%). Out of 16 observed tags, the rank of NUM is: 6 in number of lemmas, 6 in number of types and 12 in number of tokens.

The 10 most frequent NUM lemmas: два, един, три, двама, четири, 10, двадесет, шест, 000, тридесет

The 10 most frequent NUM types: две, един, два, 2, една, 1, 3, три, 10, двамата

The 10 most frequent ambiguous lemmas: един (DET 250, NUM 225, PRON 6), 10 (NUM 45, ADJ 10), 15 (NUM 31, ADJ 12), 5 (NUM 31, ADJ 6), сто (NUM 22, PROPN 1), 12 (NUM 18, ADJ 4), 21 (NUM 17, ADJ 1), 11 (NUM 14, ADJ 1), 25 (NUM 13, ADJ 2), 2000 (ADJ 40, NUM 12, PROPN 4)

The 10 most frequent ambiguous types: един (DET 88, NUM 59, PRON 1), 2 (NUM 62, ADJ 3, PROPN 1), една (DET 80, NUM 53), 1 (NUM 53, ADJ 29, PROPN 1), 3 (NUM 48, ADJ 9), 10 (NUM 45, ADJ 10), едно (DET 42, NUM 40, PRON 2), 20 (NUM 41, ADJ 5), 15 (NUM 31, ADJ 12), 4 (NUM 31, ADJ 4)

Morphology

The form / lemma ratio of NUM is 1.084541 (the average of all parts of speech is 1.728233).

The 1st highest number of forms (7) was observed with the lemma “един”: 1, Единият, един, една, едната, едно, едното.

The 2nd highest number of forms (5) was observed with the lemma “два”: 2, два, двата, две, двете.

The 3rd highest number of forms (4) was observed with the lemma “четирима”: 4-има, 4-ма, четирима, четиримата.

NUM occurs with 5 features: bg-feat/Definite (2038; 97% instances), bg-feat/NumType (2038; 97% instances), bg-feat/Number (2038; 97% instances), bg-feat/Gender (494; 23% instances), bg-feat/Animacy (8; 0% instances)

NUM occurs with 9 feature-value pairs: Animacy=Anim, Definite=Def, Definite=Ind, Gender=Fem, Gender=Masc, Gender=Neut, NumType=Card, Number=Plur, Number=Sing

NUM occurs with 16 feature combinations. The most frequent feature combination is Definite=Ind|Number=Plur|NumType=Card (1467 tokens). Examples: 3, 10, 20, три, 000, 15, 5, 4, 6, 30
