I was thinking something like: "I guess it's your face, it doesn't look like
much of a face, but it's in the right position for a face" i.e. "apparent
face." I keep forgetting that -lI' -lIj, -wI' -wIj refer to the sentience of
the object in question, I'll say to myself, "Well <<I>> am a noun capable of
language so it must be DubwI' instead of DubwIj..." Oops...
