I get confused when using (or not using) objects, subjects ---
instead replacing them with "IT". Although in several places I
read that context should dictate, I never know when to use "IT" or
not. So, to compound that confusion, I also don't know when to use
{'oH} as "IT" or one of the third-person verb prefixes instead ...

I made a typo .. it should be {motlhbe'} .. however, I digress ..
Yeah, I thought about that at the time but how, in this example,
would you emphasise the "I" ?? In fact, the "YOU" should really be
emphasised too, for my meaning ...
Perhaps a hot temperature is usual for *YOU*.
A hot temperature is NOT usual for *ME*.
