I argue that a numeral introduces the resolutions it can be read at, and that approximators operate on that set the way indefinites and definites do.

Approximators such as *approximately* or *exactly* have been analyzed either as operators that manipulate a numeral's denotation, or as devices that select a granularity level at which the numeral is
