nuqneH ghunchu'wI How do you expressa simple concept like - It was night. ? I understand the use of (or hope I do<G>) pronouns to be used as verbs. But how do you express tense in a short sentence when there is not enough other info to give you that clue? ie how do you express the difference between - It IS night. It WAS night. Thanks for your help. Qapla' K'Daq
