Numeral (linguistics)

In linguistics, a numeral is a member of a word class (or sometimes even a part of speech) designating numbers, such as the English word 'two' and the compound 'seventy-seven'.

Identifying numerals

Numerals may be attributive, as in two dogs, or pronominal, as in I saw two (of them).

Many words of different parts of speech indicate number or quantity. Quantifiers do not enumerate, or designate a specific number, but give another, often less specific, indication of amount. Examples are words such as every, most, least, some, etc. There are also number words which enumerate but are not a distinct part of speech, such as 'dozen', which is a noun, 'first', which is an adjective, or 'twice', which is an adverb. Numerals enumerate, but in addition have distinct grammatical behavior: when a numeral modifies a noun, it may replace the article: the/some dogs played in the parktwelve dogs played in the park. (Note that *dozen dogs played in the park is not grammatical, so 'dozen' is not a numeral.)

Seventeen (Serafin novel)

Seventeen is a 2004 novel by American author Shan Serafin. Originally, published as an adult work in English, the story now reaches a demographic of young adults and college students in several countries throughout the world, particularly females, as it is the story of a female adolescent named Sophia. The premise is that of a seventeen-year-old, who, in grappling with the angst of finding one's place in the world, gives herself seven days to either find her purpose or end her life. This, Serafin's literary debut, is of additional significance because he wrote it from the point of view of the opposite gender.

Of perhaps deliberate ambiguity is the story's setting, which indisputably is modern-day Manhattan, but in concerning itself with a "major university in town," never clarifies whether said university is NYU or Columbia. In either case, there are several pointed attacks at upper class academia in the work and it's likely that lack of a precise identification is Serafin's attempt to render a general critique of prestigious institutions rather than a specific one.

Seventeen (Winger song)

"Seventeen" is a single released by the American rock band Winger, from their album Winger. Released in 1988, the song charted at No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100. Despite its pop metal sound, Kip Winger points out that the tune is musically a Progressive song and that it is actually quite challenging to play and sing simultaneously. Along with Headed for a Heartbreak, it is Winger's most popular song for which they are most remembered.

The B-side for this single was the album cut "Hangin' On."

It is featured on the video games, Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s for PlayStation 2 and Saints Row for the Xbox 360.

The song was named the 87th best hard rock song of all time by VH1.

On the show Beavis & Butt-Head, Butt-Head comments that this is the theme song for Joey Buttafuoco, who was then known in those times through the Amy Fisher scandal.

(Verse)
In the corner of her eye
Never did she see such thing
Her eyes that follow through
The though she could not catch him
He grew as wild as a child
And drain 'em in the fiber through his veins
(Chorus)
It doesn't matter, it's getting stronger
Why does it have to be
But boy ,she is seventeen
And I'm older and I should know better
And why is it all wasted
Lucky and will I beat
And I'm older and I should know better
(Verse)
In the corner of his eye
Never did he see such drum
Her confidence ,her stare
And though he could not touch her
He placed his hand on his chest
No girl before could beat it like she could
(Chorus)
It doesn't matter, it's getting stronger
Why does it have to be
But boy ,she is seventeen
And I'm older and I should know better
And why is it all wasted
Lucky and will I beat
And I'm older and I should know better
(Bridge)
Well that girl's my lucky charm
My mind won't pay no rent
Well that girl's my lucky charm
My mind won't pay no rent
He can't ,he can't,he can't,he can't,he can't
He can't ,he can't,he can't,he can't,he can't
