Part of speech

cls.spa.numeralread off the URL segment (in turn parsed from the LEXEME id by lib/routes.ts’s posAndLemmaOf), because Lexeme carries no pos field yet (LAN-217/LAN-274). This route is built to prefer node.data.pos as the field once that migration lands; until then, the id is the only source and this line says so rather than hiding it.

Gloss

The cardinal for a count of twenty, invariable, and the only decad whose compounds with the units are written as single words.

The decad is invariable in gender and number and shows a diphthong that the base for two does not have. What makes it structurally different from every decad above it is the spelling of its compounds: this decad joins its units into one written word through a linking vowel, while thirty and everything above write three words joined by the ordinary coordinator.

Paradigm

No form-ofedge names this lexeme, so there is no recorded paradigm to draw — a fact about this graph’s content today, not a claim that the word has no inflection.

Class memberships

has-a edges to CLASS objects (06-surface.md §5.2) — the door back into the grammar. Subsumption (is-a) is not available here: it is same-type-only (A3), so a LEXEME cannot is-a a CLASS.

Examples

Each example declares its dialect and tier, per 06-surface.md §5.2 (“the interface ranks and labels rather than silently mixing registers”).

No examples are recorded for this lexeme (Lexeme.examples is optional; absent key = unstated, per lib/schema/nodes.ts’s own note — never a stub sentence invented to fill the section).

Where the grammar discusses this word

05-vocabulary.md §10.9’s own requirement: “a vocab entry links back to the grammar.” has-a edges to CATEGORY and inbound selects edges, both real graph edges rather than a generated cross-reference.

No CATEGORY membership or selects edge is recorded for this lexeme.
