No. In this case you need the *qaStaHvIS,* because *DIS law'* is only a 
time period, not a time stamp. It tells you a duration; it does not 
pinpoint a moment.

You could say *ben law' ghogh HablI'wIj 'aqroS wab patlh vIlo'* but that 
would mean /many years ago I used my phone's maximum sound level,/ but 
that doesn't tell us anything about how long you did this.

    <p>No. In this case you need the <b>qaStaHvIS,</b> because <b>DIS
        law'</b> is only a time period, not a time stamp. It tells you a
      duration; it does not pinpoint a moment.</p>
    <p>You could say <b>ben law' ghogh HablI'wIj 'aqroS wab patlh vIlo'</b>
