<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class="">My understanding of TR35 section 16.1 is that when deriving the grammatical gender of a “power” (like “square meter”) or “prefix” (like “milligram”) the basic operation is to strip the power and/or prefix and derive the gender of the base unit (“meter” in this case).<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If my understanding is correct, then looking at the Section 16.1:</div><div class=""><pre style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=""><deriveCompound feature="gender" structure="power" value="0"/> <!-- gender(square-meter) ← gender(meter) --> <br class=""><deriveCompound feature="gender" structure="prefix" value="0"/> <!-- gender(kilometer) ← gender(meter)--> </pre><div class="">Is there any circumstance whereby “value” could be anything other than “0” ? Is there any circumstance where the power or prefix themselves would form part of the gender determination? (Based on the above I assume not, but confirmation would be helpful). Looking at the locales for “root”, “de” and “fr”, all of them have “value=0” for “power” and “prefix”.</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Many thanks, —Kip</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></body></html>
