looking through HolQeD v9n4 (2000/12), i notice on page 5 (in captain 
krankor's "from the grammarian's desk") that he gives two examples of {wa'DIch} 
without a noun.  here are the examples:

wa'DIch maHIv 'e' muS jagh = The enemy hates us attacking first.

wa'DIch maHIv.  'e' muS jagh. = We attack first.  The enemy hates that.

doesn't {wa'DIch} mean 'the first one' when it has no accompanying noun?  in 
these two examples it seems to be used as an adverbial.  (in the english 
'first' is an adverb.)
