is one of those Esperanto words that is also a piece of grammar standing on its own two feet. The suffix -- builds a collection out of a unit, so gives (forest), gives (humanity), gives (dictionary), and is that same morpheme wearing a noun ending. Quantity takes : . Use only when you mean a set drawn from a definite group, as in . Against , which is a heap or a milling crowd, is the tidier word - a set, not a scrum.
