adjective
numerous; most; abundant
Yebhuyya (adjective) [ye = yad in Māgadhī form; thus yad bhūya = yad bhiyya "what is more or most(ly)"] abundant, numerous, most. Not found as adjective by itself, except in phrase yebhuyya-vasena mostly, as a rule Thig-a 51 and Pv-a 136, which is identical with the {558} usual instrumental yebhuyyena occurring as adverb "as according to most," i.e. 1. almost all, altogether, practically (as in our phrase "practically dead"), mostly D I 105 (addasā dvattiṃsa lakkhanāṇi y. ṭhapetvā dve: all except two) = 109; Vin III 29 f.; Ja I 246 (gāmako y. andha-bāla-manussehi yeva ussanno the village was peopled by mostly foolish folk); V 335 (y. asīti-mahātherā, altogether). 2. as it happens (or happened), usually, occasionally, as a rule, ordinarily D I 17 (saṃvaṭṭamāne loke y.
