DET: determiner

Definition

Determiners are words that modify nouns or noun phrases and express the reference of the noun phrase in context. That is, a determiner may indicate whether the noun is referring to a definite or indefinite element of a class, to a closer or more distant element, to an element belonging to a specified person or thing, to a particular number or quantity, etc.

In Portuguese corpora, numerals are not tagged as DET. In a noun phrase such as “os cinco mortos” (the five dead [people]), only “os” is tagged as DET.
