<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Rohan is correct that {HoQ} and {Qaq} are absent from paq'batlh, and the uses of {mIl} are exactly those which he mentioned.<br>
<br>
The words {quv} (the verb and the noun) appear many times. Some of the more interesting examples, in my opinion:<br>

I haven't yet got the paq'batlh in a searchable format so I have to search by eye, but I couldn't find HoQ or Qaq, and I'll have to look again for quv. mIl appears only twice, both in a verse that shows a really nice usage:<br>
