definition

digit/number: n (default: 1 or 1/2 atomic units as the case may be) more than half; barely a majority; a slight majority.

notes

n is specified by the following digits; for example: "so'e'upare" means "12 more than the floor of half" (note that atomicity of the members of the quantified set is implicitly assumed by n being an integer). When the quantified set has well-defined atomic members (such as people in a population) and is finite and non-empty (hereinafter Case #1), and when n is the default value aforementioned, then this word refers to the smallest cardinality which strictly exceeds half of the cardinality of the original set; if the quantified set is continuous (hereinafter Case #2), then this word refers to what may be conceptually captured by " MATH

Without a preceding "pi" or "pi'e", the output/referent quantity in Case #1 refers to an integer which happens to equal n more than the floor of half of the cardinality of the total applicable set which is being quantified; with "pi" or "pi'e" preceding this word, the quantification is converted to a relative count, which is conceptually and approximately "50-percent + MATH

This word is good for discussion of, for example, elections which operate and decide outcomes by bare, absolute majority. See also: "so'e".
