Despre calitatea de proformă a numeralului din limba română
On Roumanian Numeral as Pro-form

Summary/Abstract: The present article’s topic of study is the Romanian numeral, more precisely, the numeral’s capacity to function as pro-form. The first part of the study aims to clarify several issues regarding the delimitation of this grammar class, due to the fact that in Romanian the morphological classification of numerals as „names of numbers” generated numerous controversies. The second part of the research is dedicated to the analysis of the Romanian numeral from the semantico-functional point of view. The conclusion that can be drawn is that the numerals, with a few exceptions, have features which give them the quality of pro-forms, especially pro-nouns.
