Converts a number, lerfu-string or ME-converted sumti into a tanru-unit. The place structure in the case of a number is ''"x1 is/are the ''[[number|number]]''th among x2 by rule x3"''. More generally, for any sumti the place structure is ''"x1 is/are the one(s) among x2 that correspond(s) to ''[[number/lerfu/sumti]]'' by rule x3"''.

klaku: The moi3 is not very well defined. Is it a process by which to order? In that case, describing the process will lead to a very long sumti, which is not practical. I suggest that it is a {ka}, so that lo moi is ordered such that those with most of the property are before those with less of the property. Thus, "second in shortness" is {remoi fi loka tordu}, rather than something involving a description of an elobate process.

The CLL has:

  • lei ratcu poi zvati le panka cu so'umei lo'i ratcu
  • The-mass-of rats which are-in the park are a-fewsome with-respect-to the-set-of rats.
  • The rats in the park are a small number of all the rats there are.

Which I don't think fits with mei as we use it at all; either the definition here or the CLL needs changing.



Formal definitions

MOI
x1 number moi x2 x3 x1 me x2 gi'e lidne da'a number me x2 x3
x1 number mei x2 x1 me x2 gi'e klani li number lo se gradu be x2
x1 number si'e x2 x1 pagbu x2 gi'e klani li number lo se gradu be x2
x1 number cu'o x2 x1 se pacna zi'o li number va'o x2
x1 number va'e x2 x1 se merli zi'o li number x2



General Section Notes

  1. The definition of me corresponds to the basic relation __Among__ as formalized in the book Plural Predication (Oxford University Press, 2006) by Thomas McKay, which also agrees with the definition as given in CLL. See gadri: an unofficial commentary from a logical point of view for a precise discussion on plural quantification and me.
  2. The interpretation proposed for a ME-converted sumti with moi is an extension of the definition for n-moi as n-th.
  3. The second argument of mei is changed with respect to CLL, to make it more useful and more in line with the rest of the system.
