I'd like to express "hardly/scarcely in Lojban.
Thought of something around PAPA:
the opposite of {piso'a} - in English given as "almost the whole of" - is {piso'u} - "a tiny part of"

I'd like better expressing: "almost/next to nothing of"

Any help?


{piso'u} is really pretty good, but logically {piso'ano} ought to work for the tigher meaning.
