Here's a question: Since the implied subject of weather words is usually
*muD* (or sometimes maybe *chal* for precipitation and the like), how would
you all interpret *vungwI'*?
Would you read it as the noun "hurricane", as in the part of the atmosphere
that's hurricaning, considered as a single system? (So you could perhaps
say something like *FloridaDaq ghoSlI' 'Irma' vungwI'* *"Hurricane Irma is
approaching Florida"*, with the assumption that "hurricane" is treated like
a rank or title.)
Or would it be taken to mean something less specific or useful, like "the
atmosphere as a whole, which happens to be hurricaning somewhere", assuming
it means anything at all?
