number

The number class a word (or rather lexeme) belongs to.

This feature is present on objects of type word.

code description
sg singular
du dual
pl plural
NA not applicable
unknown unknown

There are three genders in the Hebrew Bible, singular (sg) and plural (pl) and a much rarer dual (du). Not all words have number (e.g. adverbs) and these are marked as NA. There are words that do have number, but whose number class is unknown to us, because they only occur in forms that do not mark it; these are marked as unknown.
