maj. tlho'=2C qurgh.

I confess I'm particularly thrilled to see the nouns {Su'nIm} and {vem}. Th=
e ideas of traces=2C tracks=2C spoor=2C or trails - in fact=2C virtually an=
y type of evidence of an object's prior presence in a place - have been a l=
exical gap for which straightforward renditions have generally stymied me f=
or some years. Fingerprints=2C footprints=2C tyre tracks=2C even ion trails=
. In fact=2C I remember specifically raising them at the wishlist session a=
t qep'a' 2011=2C my first qep'a'. So in a sense=2C I feel these are almost =
like Maltz granting my own specific wish. I feel like a kid at Christmas. :=
D

The phonological form of the word {vem} also gives us the possibility of th=
e rhyming construction {bem vem} for "footprint"=2C which I think is kind o=
f poetic.
