Principally=2C yep. I suppose I went for "desiderata" on the basis of Quvar=
saying that it was explicitly things wished for (Dochmey'e' luneHlu'bogh)=
=2C whereas "wish" could conceivably refer not only to a thing wished for=
=2C but also an act of wishing: as in a genie granting you three wishes=2C =
or making a wish over a birthday cake. But yes=2C "wish" would be a great g=
loss too=2C I expect.
