<html><body><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:garamond, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt">IIRC, it's been established that -Daq and -vo' apply only to physical movement to or from a given location.<br><br>3.3.5 Syntactic markers<br><strong><strong><font color="#DD3615">-Daq</font></strong>
and <strong><font color="#DD3615">-vo'</font></strong> are
strictly locative; they refer only to
<u>motion</u>, or <u>location</u>.
They can't be used in other situations in which English uses
"to", "in" or "from" in a metaphorical sense (eg. "I translate from English to Klingon";
you can't use <strong><font color="#DD3615">-Daq</font></strong>
for "to" or <strong><font color="#DD3615">-vo'</font></strong>
for "from").</strong> [HQ v8n1p7], quoted here from http://teresh.tdonnelly.org/kliadd3.html<br><br><div>+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<br>Freelance Author</div><br><div><br></div><div>The Plainclothes Clown: http://fiat-knox.livejournal.com<br>The Serpent's Tongue: http://toscapetheserpentstongue.blogspot.com/<br> <blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; margin-top: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <div style="font-family: garamond, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> <font face="Arial" size="2"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> nIqolay q <[email protected]><br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> "[email protected]" <[email protected]> <br> <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Sent:</span></b>
