Qov:
> {qungmeyDaj} is weird for me. I get the flute imagery first. If
it were me translating I would stray from the close translation and
go with something like {QIDqu'lu'pu' 'ej reghbe'choHbe'.} That's
not too good either, but I think this should be more emotional than technical.

<qung, the word for "hole in a musical instrument," can't be used
for a hole in the ground, but it could be used for a bullet hole or
a hole in a shirt (including buttonholes, moth holes, accidental
rips, etc.) or a hole in the roof.>
