Yes, but I believe that this is our first example of
{QongDaqDaq}, which was a word we thought might be valid, but
weren't sure. It also provides more justification for {DaqDaq}
as a word, which makes some people cringe, though it makes
perfect sense to me. Let's say that by accident, the timing is
such that one overhears snoring...
QongDaqDaq QongDI' QongwI', bong DaqDaq DaqlI' DaqwI'.
