That would pull so'a out of the so'V series. For the other
members, the meaning is as in {so'u ci} = "3 which are few",
{so'e ci} = "3 which are most", so I would say {so'a ci} = "3
which are almost all".

{ji'i ci} is "about 3". Maybe {za'uru'e ci} for "just over 3"
and {me'iru'e ci} for "just under 3". I have used {za'usai ci}
for "much more than three".
