Re: BPFK Section: Numeric Tense

posts: 14214

From an IRC discussion about the ma'oste's definition of "pi so'e roi":

14.03 14:45 xorxes: {pimu roi} would be "half the time" as in "one out of every two times", then?
14.03 14:46 Broca: Half of one time, rather?
14.03 14:47 No.
14.03 14:47 If pi so'i roi means "much of the time", then "pi mu roi" must mean "one out of every two times".
14.03 14:47 (and vice versa)
14.03 14:48 The ma'oste claims the former.
14.03 14:48 Broca: Hmm, okay.
14.03 14:48 Whereas xorxes (and Broca, apparently) was assuming the latter.
14.03 14:48 I'm not sure it's terribly important, myself.
14.03 14:48 But I'd ilke to verify that whatever the BFPK settles on, we can get to both somehow.
