I never before considered such constructions as gheghwI'Du'. Being part of
debates on this listserv has caused me to reread our source materials many
times. This can be very revealing.
When I first encountered {Sev} in TKD, I thought it meant that a particular
place contains an enemy, thus making it a dangerous place. KGT clarifies that
{Sev} means to constrict an enemy's position. So, now whenever I play chess,
I use the word {Sev} for "cause zugzwang".
May we keep on gaining clearer insight.
