Using {vItlh} is a good choice, but isn't that only to be used with regards to things such as speed, destruction etc ?
What I'm trying to say is, if I want to say "january has more days than february", can I use the {vItlh} ? Can I say..
{jar wa' jajmey vItlh law' jar cha' jajmey vItlh puS} ?
This was the reason which made me start this thread in the first place. The need to express the concept of "more" in cases as the above.
*vItlh* is given to us as /be high, great (in quantity, size, intensity)./ If this translation is completely accurate, I'd expect *vItlh* to work the way you have used it. January's days are indeed greater in quantity than February's days. But notice that *vItlh* is a lot more vague here than *law'.* With *vItlh,* maybe you're saying that January's days are more intense than February's, or longer. *vItlh* doesn't specify. But with *law**',* there is only one interpretation: there are /more/ days in January than in February. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
