Numerals are LRUs that represent numbers.
Natural Language
In the UNLarium 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.
- Cardinal numerals
-
- 1 = 1
- one = 1
- 2 = 2
- two = 2
- MDCCCIX = 1819
- 1000000 = 1000000
- 1 000 000 = 1000000
- 1,000,000 = 1000000
- 3.14159 = 3.14159
- 3,14159 = 3.14159
- Ordinal numerals
- To be represented as @ordinal
- 1st = 1.@ordinal
- first = 1.@ordinal
- Partitive numerals
- To be represented as cardinal numerals
- 1/3 = 1/3
- one third = 1/3
- half = 1/2
- quarter = 1/4
- Multiplicative numerals
- To be represented as @times
- once = 1.@times
- twice = 2.@times
- thrice = 3.@times
- four times = 4.@times
- Collective numerals
- To be represented as @tuple
- double = 2.@tuple
- triple = 3.@tuple
- sextuple = 6.@tuple
