Meaning of 人減 when used as a noun In my studies, I've come across the noun `` used in the context of population. An example would be, ``. `` means to diminish / decrease. Thus, I hypothesize the meaning of this noun is to express `population has decreased [to 110 thousand]`. Is my assumption correct, or is the meaning different?

It means "decrease/drop (of population) by 110 thousand".

"The population has decreased to 110 thousand." is translated as "11" and it means "The current population is 110 thousand".
