RE: bangwI' chu' (laDlaH puqpu' 'e' vISov)



charghwI' ja' Holtej:
>bIQuchtaHjaj.

TKD Addendum Section 4.2.9. (pages 175-176):
  {-jaj} "may"
  This suffix is used to express a desire or wish on the part of
  the speaker that something take place in the future.  When it
  is used, there is never a Type 7 aspect suffix.

This rule is perhaps more obscure than the one which prohibits aspect
suffixes on the second verb of a Sentence-As-Object, but it's a rule.
