metadata.value: This article contributes to the comparative analysis and classification of implicit (connotative) meaning
  revealed by Russian and Chinese numerals “1” (cardinal and ordinal numbers) in the inner form of
  numeral phrases. Semantic comparison of Russian idioms and Chinese Chengyu with these numerals
  shows that Russian numerals один (one) and первый (first) and their Chinese equivalent 一 yī
  possess several regular types of connotations which actually compose most of the actual meanings
  of these numeral phrases. For example, when describing certain occurrences, phenomenon, concepts,
  single or multiple real objects or beings, both Russian and Chinese cardinal numerals один and
  一 yī can be used in these meanings, such as ‘similar’, ‘unique’, ‘little, few (of relatively small number)’ or
  ‘random(whatever, whichever, whoever and etc.)’. Ordinal numbers первый and 一 yī also share several
  common connotations, including ‘starting, beginning’, ‘directly, frankly’ and ‘leading, prime’. By highlighting
  and focusing on such connotations of equivalent numerals within the inner form of numeral
  idioms of two different languages, students and translators can better understand their usage. Refs 9.
