The document investigates the processing of Russian numerical phrases, focusing on the morphological forms of nouns used with numerals. It highlights that nouns in these expressions take different forms based on the numeral: nominative for '1', genitive singular for paucal numerals (2-4), and genitive plural for higher numerals. The study presents experimental data suggesting that the genitive singular form used with paucal numerals is distinct from its use in non-numerical contexts, indicating a mismatch between surface forms and underlying representations. This research contributes to understanding linguistic theory by demonstrating how speakers process these mismatches in real-time.
