Rhet gre 1363b9-11καὶ μεῖζον μὲν ἀεὶ καὶ πλεῖον πρὸς ἔλαττον, (10) μέγα δὲ καὶ μικρὸν καὶ πολὺ καὶ ὀλίγον πρὸς τὸ τῶν (11) πολλῶν μέγεθος,
Rhys Roberts 1924 engNow to call a thing ‘greater’ or ‘more’ always implies a comparison of it with one that is ‘smaller’ or ‘less’, while ‘great’ and ‘small’, ‘much’ and ‘little’, are terms used in comparison with normal magnitude.
