Experimental cmavo.
Built as a MAI, with a number prepended to bei'e; placed as an evidential.
The number added to the front is the decibels of logarithmic Bayesian probability the speaker assigns to the word or phrase that the bei'e refers to. 0, nobei'e, represents 50% confidence, higher numbers greater confidence, lower numbers lesser confidence, as according to E.T. Jaynes' standard description.
ni'uci'ibei'e | -oo | 0% | 1:oo | complete disbelief, paradox |
ni'upabei'e | -1 | 44.3% | 4:5 | |
ni'ubei'e | <0 | <50% | <1:1 | less than even odds, less likely than so |
nobei'e | 0 | 50% | 1:1 | neither belief nor disbelief, agnosticism |
ma'ubei'e | >0 | >50% | >1:1 | greater than even odds, more likely than not |
pabei'e | 1 | 55.7% | 5:4 | preponderance of the evidence |
rebei'e | 2 | 61.3% | 3:2 | |
cibei'e | 3 | 66.6% | 2:1 | clear and convincing evidence |
vobei'e | 4 | 71.5% | 5:2 | |

ci'ibei'e | oo | 100% | oo:1 | complete belief, tautology |
xobei'e | ? | ?% | ?:? | question, asking listener their level of belief |
Adding 10 decibels multiplies the odds by a factor of 10.
