I was always led to understand that several was three or more. Reflecting on this now, it was never quite made clear how many more!

My mum told me that a few meant 3, some meant 5, several meant 7, and many or lots meant more than 12.

I would suggest a Tic is a measurement of time moving forward, and a Mo ( moment) is a position in time. But all very contradictory.
Perhaps someone ca determine a more precise definition Mr DaveW, I'm sure they won't be a tic.

A light nanosecond is handy when dealing with metric types who don't know what a foot is.
