{peHruS} is the name of someone on this list. {-vaD} is a Type 5 noun
suffix meaning "for, "intended for, to". Always keep in mind that a word
you can't find in the glossaries of TKD or KGT might be a name, particularly
if polysyllabic.
: Also your statement : <<Hagh qoHpu' neH reghtaHvIS SuvwI'pu'>> does that
: mean something like "Only fools laugh at warriors bleeding"?
"... while warriors bleed" or "... while warriors are bleeding". {-vIS}
"while" is a Type 9 verb suffix which "is always used along with the Type 7
suffix {-taH} 'continuous'" (TKD p.43). Read TKD section 6.2 for details on
its use.
