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.
