 Where did you find {'op}?  Its definition isn't in my dictionary.  I'm
 not too sure how to parse this sentence anyway; the verb prefix on {nID}
 doesn't match {wotmey}, which I *think* is supposed to be the subject.

{'op} came from a Skybox card and means "some of," while {HochHom} translates
as "most of."

Above:  I must now report that no one would understand if some verbs tried to
take an object.
