         DefinitionShort: to experience superior benefit or advantage, implying some type of comparison

         Glosses: ['to have a greater benefit', 'to experience a superior advantage']

         Comments: In indicating ‘a superior advantage’ it may be necessary to be quite specific about the basis for the comparison. For example, in {S:04600800800032} it may be necessary to translate as ‘if we do eat, we will be no better off than if we did not eat,’ and in {S:04500300900006} one may translate ‘what then; are we decidedly better off than the others are?’
