Trial (grammatical number)

In linguistics, the trial grammatical number is a grammatical number referring to ‘three things’, as opposed to ‘singular’ and ‘plural’. Trial linguistic structures do not exist in English, nor do dual numbers.

Tolomako and Lihir are examples of languages with trial number.
