The paper deals with the category of number of nouns (in a broad sense). The category cannot be considered to have been conclusively defined in linguistics either with regard to its universality or its systematicity. Various means and modes of expressing number in the world languages are presented: affixation, inner flexion, the article, suppletion, reduplication, quantifiers, and class markers. Attention has also been given to the dual number and its fate.
