forty
| Morphological Notes | Gr,EN = cardinal numeral (determiner); accusative feminine plural in agreement with the counted noun; indeclinable in form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term denotes the cardinal number formed from "four" plus the tens suffix, literally "four tens." As an indeclinable numeral functioning here with feminine accusative plural reference, "forty" accurately preserves both its root sense and quantitative force. |
