Bearing in mind that ordinals are adjectives, we would thus have:
+Num +Num+Card
+Ord +A+Ord ! Heli: but ordinals do not have comparative and superlative
! Sjur: do all other adjectives have those?
! Heli: You could form comparative for a regular noun as
! well.. "majam" -- more house-like.
! Sjur: Yes, but are there regular adjectives (nouns) that do
! not compare? Like many Swedish & Norwegian
! adjectives.
! Heli: can you give an example of a norwegian adjective?
! Sjur: eksemplarisk - *eksemplariskere - *eksemplariskest
! Heli: yes, actually there exist similar adjectives in
! Estonian, too.
! Sjur: Exactly, and among them the ordinals ;)

Verbs
The first question in determining the tagset for verb categories is: what is
Below is the set of all the possible combinations of morphological categories
tegumood, aeg, kõneviis, isik, arv, kõnelaad voice, tense, mood, person, number, aspect
The categories are given in the order in which the allomorphs (if they can be
-
voice: personal vs. impersonal 0-morph vs. t/da t/di t/du) eg. elaks vs
-
tense: present vs. past (0-morph vs. s/si/nu), e.g. elan vs. elasin;
-
mood: indicative vs. conditional vs imperative vs quotative
-
person+number: notice that in personal present imperative 3rd person
-
aspect: affirmative vs. negative. The aspect manifests itself via

Ways to simplify the way verb categories are combined above:
- If there is underspecification (afirmative/negative), leave it out.
- If there is underspecification (1s/2s/3s/1p/2p/3p), leave it out, but keep

- Omit "personal" where person and number are specified anyway.
- If a combination contains "affirmative", leave "affirmative" out. This will
