The reason {vajHa'} doesn't exist is because it doesn't make sense. In
English (or any other natural language), we don't say, "Unthus I went there."
It doesn't make sense. Perhaps all adverbs that have meanings with {-Ha'} can
take {-Ha'}.
Now, a question. Do we know of any adverbs that take {-be'} or any other verb
suffixes?
