Hi, peHruS here
I took a lot of flak this week on my ideas posted on this listserv. But, I
am happy. I instigated the type of discussion which has taught me a lot.
Now, I must go back into a story I have been writing and change {ghov} to
{Sov} when I am saying "know a person." And, I must start using {yIn} for
"live [someplace]." I must be certain when and where to use the topicalizer
{-'e'}.
Perhaps the most misunderstood posting of mine all week was:
paqvo' wa' nav vIteq = I take a page from the book
paqmo' qun vIghoj = I learn history from the book
I would like more comments, yet, please. In TKD we find {SuSmo' joq} =
flutters due to the wind. ghunchu'wI' wondered if the book hit me, then I
comprehended history. Perhaps, my brilliant idea of using the suffix {-mo'}
for "from" won't work after all.
