Which word did you have in mind? {cimni} is defined so broadly that it seems to be usable for both: ny cimni le kamselkaclai alef bu xino N is infinite in cardinality to degree Aleph-null. ny cimni le kamselporlai omegas bu N is infinite in ordinality to degree Omega. where I have used {kamselkaclai} and {kamselporlai} for "cardinality" and "ordinality". Probably they could be improved on. co'o mi'e xorxes ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ WRITERS WANTED!
