General; In general/generally

[lsatstudent99966]

General:
1. The general population of the country supports party A.
2. The general resources in this country are imported.

Generally/in general:
1. People in this country generally work 6 days a week.
2. In general, people in this country work 6 days a week.

Do all of these words mean 51% or more?
Thank you so much!

Hi lsatstudent99966!

Wildarthy seems correct. As I'm reading your examples, that language doesn't unambiguously refer to 51% or more, but perhaps it's possible that they could mean that in some contexts. If there's a specific question where you're seeing that language, feel free to include it and we can address a specific example in context.
