Word order of numeral constructions
In languages that have a numeral classifier (Clsfr) in their numeral constructions, two word orders are possible: the classifier either directly precedes the numeral or directly follows it. This gives rise to the three types below regarding word order:
NoClsfr: The language has no numeral classifiers.
NumClsfr: The language has an obligatory or optional numeral classifier in its numeral constructions, which appears in the position after the numeral.
ClsfrNum: The language has an obligatory or optional numeral classifier in its numeral constructions, which appears in the position before the numeral.
When a language displays two types, both values can be listed. If one type is dominant, a slash (/) can separate the two values, with the dominant value appearing first; if neither is dominant, they are listed with an ampersand (&) separating the two. The optionality of the Clsfr can be indicated by putting it into parentheses.
