Re: choH vs. choHmoH
Okay, so the best would be to explain this {yIchoHmoH} sentence away as a
probable mistake, while {choH} is transitive and means "to change
something", right?
Also, David, I think I remember the discussion about the valency change (or
not) by {-moH}, I didn't have time to look at it myself. Same goes for
{-lu'} and if it's a passive or not. I am a linguist too, please don't be
shocked. But I'm not eager on asking provocative questions on this list. ;)
Anyway, thanks for the enlightening answers, everyone!
Greetings,
- André
