But, I don't know how to express accurately that the music and the body join
together.  Perhaps, tay'chuq QoQ jIH je works better.  From MO's past usage of
{tay'}, I get the feeling this is the way to express "being together, as part
of each other, being connected."  matay'DI maQap (TKW 209).  I gain the
feeling that tay' is the opposite of mob (TKW 73, top), thus approximately the
same as mobbe'.  See also TKW 34, both top and bottom.

Also, there's {qat}.  jImI'DI' muqat QoQ.  Similar to tlhej, but for music.
Compare TKW 173 and TKW 161 to KGT 76, bottom.

I don't think I'd use SIgh (TKW 170) here, even though the music does
definitely influence how I dance.
