<DIV>&gt; jang DloraH, jatlh:<BR>&gt;&gt; mebpa'meylIj yIngu'.<BR><BR>&gt; *tI*ngu'. Though I think the singular might be preferable here (mebpa'lIj yIngu'),</DIV>
<DIV>&gt;&nbsp;since it's rare for one person to occupy more than one guest room.<BR><BR>&gt; QeS<BR></DIV>
I would like to remind you that&nbsp;&lt;mebpa'mey&gt; was defined as "hotel" in KGT.&nbsp; Saying&nbsp;&lt;mebpa'meylIj tIngu'&gt; makes it sound like I think you have more than one room.&nbsp; Saying &lt;mebpa'lIj yIngu'&gt; makes it sound like I want to know your room number.&nbsp; However, the entries in KGT make it look like &lt;mebpa'meylIj yIngu'&gt; means "Identify your hotel".&nbsp; Though personally I would&nbsp;prefer &lt;mebpa'lIj qach yIngu'&gt;.<BR>
