I was about to ask you about the verb {yoq} when I realized: Sweden. Bjorn. Mjolnir. IKEA furniture names. yoq/joq easy typo. That must be a pain. I think {'ul yu'egh QumwI'} is clearer than {De' labmeH 'ej lI'meH choHtaHbogh 'ul loH jan}. choHnISba'taH yu'egh 'ej QummeH jan, motlh De' lab 'ej lI'.

It's the concept of communicating through periodic variations in electromagnetic waves. - Qov >________________________________________ From: Robyn Stewart >[[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 18, 2012 23:29 To: >[email protected] Subject: Re: [Tlhingan-hol] Old fashioned radio >At 15:21 '?????' 6/18/2012, you wrote: >I remember in an interview >with Boise State Public Radio, Marc used ><Qum pat> (or maybe it was ><Qumpat>) to refer to "radio".
