Passage on "nominator"

[edit]

I'm currently investigating the legitimacy of using "nominator" to mean "numerator". At first glance, the use of "nominator" seems like an eggcorn, and I have yet to see a legitimate source supporting this usage. The current link provided to support its usage is not convincing at all. Rschwieb (talk) 13:18, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

How on earth can a BlurtIt page be considered a reliable source?

Missing telephony sense?

[edit]

This page [1] defines numerator as "the small numbering machine used to print subscribers' numbers on telephone dial labels". I couldn't find much on this. Equinox 11:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
