Remarks

The category is only a mnemonic; the name does noy necessarily imply the exact contents of the category. For example, for both English and French the number 1 has the category "one" (singular). In English, every other number has a plural form, and is given the category "other". French is similar, except that the number 0 has the category "one" and not "other" or "zero", because the form of units qualified by 0 is also singular.
