I enjoy that conversation is happening and I feel okay about
letting grammatical errors slide in these settings, but when I
see SuSvaj repeating the same error (the object of a verb with
{-lu'} PRECEEDS the verb, SuSvaj!) and then I see a second
person misusing a word ({joy'} is a VERB, NOT a NOUN), I feel a
need to intervene before people get accustomed to these errors
and it becomes pseudo-cannon/habit.
Most of this is very well written and a joy to read. This is
not an exhaustive correction. The {-lu'} thing happened in an
earlier post and again here, and the {joy'} thing pushed me
over the edge.
Well, at least you know I actually read it...

So this means <yeq> does not imply a 'with' in it. Is that the same for
