Experimental cmavo.

Built as a MAI, with a number prepended to ''bei'e''; placed as an evidential.

The number added to the front is the decibels of logarithmic Bayesian probability the speaker assigns to the word or phrase that the ''bei'e'' refers to. 0, ''nobei'e'', represents 50% confidence, higher numbers greater confidence, lower numbers lesser confidence, as according to E.T. Jaynes' standard description.
