/prɪˈpɒndərəns/ – Noun
Definition: sự chiếm ưu thế, sự trội hơn, sự chiếm đa số.
A more thorough explanation: Preponderance refers to the greater weight of evidence or the more convincing evidence in a legal case. It is a standard of proof commonly used in civil cases, where a party must prove that their version of the facts is more likely true than not true.
Example: In a civil case, the burden of proof is typically on the plaintiff to establish their case by a preponderance of the evidence, meaning that it is more likely than not that their version of events is true.
