Good point. TKD says, "hide, cloak", not "be hidden, cloaked", so
{qaSo'moH} would mean "I make you hide something." Hmmm. Could it be that
{qaSo''eghmoH} would mean, "I make you hide (yourself)," which is somewhat
different from {qaSo'}, which means, "I hide you."
Hmm. Would the {-'egh} apply itself to the action of the verb or the
causation?
