part of the problem i have with learning and using tlhIngan Hol is figuring
out how to render (or "recast") what i want to say into the available words.
e.g. how to say "length"? ("to be long" is [ nI' ] or [ tIq ] depending on
the sense, so i'll use [ tIq ] here.) does one say something like:
"when something is long"? [ tIqDI' vay' ]
what is a common paraphrase for this sort of thing?
