A Grammar of Catalan Sign Language (LSC)

4.3.4. Numeral incorporation

Numerals can be incorporated to the root of a noun in LSC forming a single sign. In these cases, the position of the cardinal cannot be determined, since it is articulated simultaneously with the root. However, not all noun signs allow for numeral incorporation. In LSC, pronouns, temporal expressions, and some classifiers allow for this phenomenon [LEXICON 3.10].
