KLBC: Moving Around



Just for clarification, when using a verb such as ghoS, jaH, leng, or some 
other verb of motion, of the no object prefix is selected, then the action 
takes place at or in that specific place.  If there is an object, then the 
object is that place, unless it is oblique (marked by -Daq with another noun 
after it, or by itself), and the action is directed towards that place, 
jIqar'a'?

vaj, vIjatlhchugh:

juHwIjDaq jIghoS - I proceed in my house.
juHwIj vIghoS - I proceed towards my house.
juHwIjDaq vIghoS - I proceed towards my house.
'ach, SaHchugh DIp:
juHwIjDaq puchpa' vIghoS - I proceed to the bathroom in my house.

bIQtIqDaq jIjaH - I go in the ocean.
bIQtIq vIjaH - I go to the ocean.
bIQtIqDaq vIjaH - I go to the ocean.
'ach, SaHchugh DIp:
bIQtIqDaq Qe' vIjaH - I go to the restaurant at the ocean.

I assume that leng works the same as jaH does.  

jIqarbe' choqarmoH'a' pagh?
