I have been wondering about how to perfectly convey sentences where there
seems to be 2 subjects, such as "She made you wait for us" and just came up
with an idea that I wanted to discuss with you: using < ... =E2=80=99e=E2=
=80=99 qaSmoH >

For instance:
juloS =E2=80=99e=E2=80=99 qaSmoH
> Literally: She caused it to happen that you waited for us

Or, for the example from last month (they made the dog enter the cage:
DogvaD mo=E2=80=99 lu=E2=80=99elmoH):
mo=E2=80=99 =E2=80=99el dog =E2=80=99e=E2=80=99 luqaSmoH

When you think about it, in "She made you wait for us", the subject is
"she" but the object is not "you", it is the action/event "you wait for us"
taken as a whole, thus <... =E2=80=99e=E2=80=99 qaSmoH > seems a logical wa=
y to phrase it.

What do you think ? Has it maybe been discussed already ?

Best,
Aur=C3=A9lie
