ABSTRACT
This is the same jm as the question word jm (how many?/which?). However, in this context, it means ‘several’ and is used to refer to any number that is more than one but less than ten. Let us compare jm as a question word to jm as an adjective in the following two sentences:
A: Mama, wn ynu jM tiáo lmngdài? Mum, how many ties do I have?
