Whilst, the least data is maxim of quantity, observed once, that is in 1 utterance of conversation verses only. The utterances of conversation verses could be explained related to maxims meaning or perspective. and the phrase expressions found based on maxim contain meanings which are interrelated with the meaning of each maxim itself.
