adverb
I had rather (with infin.): P. and V. βούλομαι μᾶλλον, or V. βούλομαι alone (Euripides, Andromache 351).
somewhat: with adj. and adv., use comparative.
rather weak: P. and V. ἀσθενέστερος.
nay rather: P. and V. μὲν οὖν.
let someone come forward and prove to me or rather to you that I am not speaking the truth: P. παρελθών τις ἐμοί, μᾶλλον δὲ ὑμῖν δειξάτω ὡς οὐκ ἀληθῆ ταῦτ' ἐγὼ λέγω (Dem. 20).
