What is it a quantity of? Does "I love so much of you very much" mean
there is only a little of the loved person which you don't love very
much? In that case, I am going to use a clever new word I learned
recently: {si'e}, meaning "portion selbri."

If I understand {si'e} correctly,
{pasi'e} means "x1 is the first portion of mass/totality x2",
{resi'e} means "x1 is the second portion of mass/totality x2",
{rosi'e} means "x1 is all portions of mass/totality x2",
{su'osi'e} means "x1 is at least some portions of mass/totality x2".
{so'esi'e} means "x1 is most of the portions of mass/totality x2".

mi mutce prami le so'esi'e be do   "I much-love most portions of you."
