Hey, see, there's a cleaner way to do they law'/puS business with clauses
(tho here too I'd use "-DI'" and not "-meH", but I'm less certain).

Hey, works for me. I never really bothered much with it... I suppose I did
pick "Seqram" once (for marq S spelled backwards)... but I never pushed it
enough. "valqIr" sounds as good as anything else. Not dissimilar from
valQIS, come to think of it.
