I wonder who's kissing her now?

QeS 'utlh ([email protected])



I just have a question I want to throw open to all who believe they've 
satisfactorily solved this problem.

In my Worlds of Translation story, I've come across the following sentence: 
"I wonder if he realises how lucky he is". This parallels something that 
Okrand said in an interview in HolQeD 7:4, where he talks about how he'd go 
about translating the sentence "I wonder who's kissing her now".

Has anyone come up with a decent way to translate "I wonder X" using the 
verb {SIv} "to wonder", or am I on my own?

Savan,
