I see this as " I go on the ship." " I use the ship to go." The same as what
you wrote basically. <jIjaH. jIjaHtaHvIS >Duj vIlo'> " I go. While I go, I use
the ship."

I fail to see a difference here. If there is one, could someone point it out
to me?
1. <'ochDaq veng vI'el.> "I enter the city via the tunnel."
2. <chobDaq pa' vI'el> "I enter the room via the corridor."
Qapla'!
