preponderantly
In greater measure
Preponderantly means for the most part or predominantly: The neighborhood is preponderantly working-class.
It emphasizes that one element significantly outweighs others in a group or mixture.
The word is formal and somewhat stiff—mostly appears in academic or legal writing where precision about proportions matters.
