I had no problem understanding it. {qetHa'} is OK here, and I'd say one of
the better options.

I can't think of many; lay'SIv's idea {tlhoS pum} "it almost falls" is
another option. But to be honest, I think you've already found the word that
expresses what you're looking for. {qetHa'} is fine IMO.
