8 hrs confidence:
quantitatively Explanation: A pure guess (stands open to correction if more context is provided). The original doesn't quite sound like OT-Deutsch to my non-native ear. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 15 mins (2005-11-11 09:54:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In response to the additional context: In light of the comment 'wobei diese Angaben nicht immer zur Gänze zutreffen', perhaps 'mit Masse' is intended to mean 'preponderantly' or 'largely'. The style strikes me as rather stiff for contemporary German. |
