<p>How canon are these "notes" though? Do they include earlier drafts of script lines which were subsequently changed? </p>
<p>Or maybe {HIvHe yIchoHmoH} is "cause it (the ship?) to alter (its) attack course"?</p>
<p>{woj choHwI'} and {HoS choHwI'} would suggest that {choH} is transitive by itself.</p>
