Don't just use words because you've seen them used by others.  You
need to understand the ideas and context behind the usages.  In my
explanations of how *I* would understand the {wej tlho'ren} phrase
when used before or after {HIq}, I tried to make clear that I have
no justification for *why* I would understand them that way.  Your
understanding should be based on something more than one person's
gut feeling.
