Oleg,
Thank you. I am sure that you have identified my problem.
\dF+ english (output below) lists my dictionary which is named
'rwg_synonym' before numword so I would have thought that my
dictionary would have normalized '1st' to '1' before the numword
dictionary was reached. Maybe this question belongs in a new thread,
but I do thank you for helping me to look in the correct place.
Best regards,
Rich
