&gt; Love it, so useful. I also love that it&#39;s similar enough to rI&#39; that I can<br>
&gt; imagine a common etymology.<br>
<br>
I&#39;m sure everyone would understand {rItHa&#39;} as &quot;dismiss&quot;, though I&#39;m<br>
not going to put it in my dictionary database. It does make me wonder<br>
what {rI&#39;Ha&#39;} could mean.<br>

<br>
With no context whatsoever, I would understand {rI&#39;Ha&#39;} as &quot;disconnect/hang up,&quot; because rI&#39; to me usually implies the use of a communicator or other transmission device.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
