Abstract
In the slow evolution of the International vocabulary of metrology (VIM), the first concept of ‘quantity’ has now been divided generically into ‘ordinal quantity’ and a coordinate primitive without definition and term. An analysis of the concepts by their characteristics is made, and the nature of inheritance is discussed in response to a recent communication in this journal. A completion of the initiated generic division of ‘quantity’ is suggested, and a neoterm for the sister of ‘ordinal quantity’ is offered on the basis of two proposals.
