| == Natural Language ==
| |
| In the UNL<sup>arium</sup> framework, numerals are classified as:
| |
| *cardinal (CDN): describe quantity (“two”, “three”)
| |
| *ordinal (ORD): describe position (“first”, “second”)
| |
| *partitive (PTN): describe division (“half”, “two thirds”)
| |
| *multiplicative (MLN): describe repetition (“once”, “twice”)
| |
| *distributive (DTN): describe distributions (“in pairs”, “by the dozen”)
| |
| Numeral determiners must be classified as numerals.
| |
| | |
| == UNL ==
| |
| In UNL, numerals are to be replaced by numbers, without separators for thousands, and with "." for decimals. They are temporary UWs.
