This is true, but I think that most people extrapolate from betleH
(aka batleth) to meqleH (mekleth).  JMO
------------------
Actually I think I'm the one that started the meqleH thing as an extrapolation from
betleH.  As best I could tell no one responded to my post about that extrapolation
many many months ago so I think I'm "most people" which is rather sparse.
If I can ever get on MSN maybe I'll ask Okrand.
Sorry Will but I kind of need that canon for my next book so it's rather important,
at least for me.
