A bit more info in a follow-up, which reveals an additional verb.
{lav} v. lean, incline, slant
--- begin Q&A follow-up ---
[De'vID]> Can {ler} be used to mean "oscillate", like for a usual pendulum
(with the pivot at the top)? Or is it only used when the pivot is at the
bottom? Also, would a regular rhythm like that of a metronome be described
as {lerchu'}?
Yes. {ler} can be used for "oscillate," and it can be used for a pendulum
regardless of whether the pivot is at the top or bottom (or somewhere
else). And {lerchu'} could be used for what a metronome does. Maltz was
glad you asked these questions, because they reminded him of another word
(and helped clarify the meaning of this one). The other word is {lav},
which can be translated "lean, incline, slant" and so on. It means
something like "move to a slanted or angled position." The starting
position is often, but doesn't have to be, upright or perpendicular. If
it's a person, the person's feet stay put (as with {ler}). And, as with
{ler}, the pivot point can be on top (or somewhere else). The difference
between {ler} and {lav} is that {ler} is used for continuous swinging, back
and forth and back and forth (forward-back-forward-back, etc., or
left-right-left-right, etc.), while {lav} means motion in one direction
only, then the motion stops (though the stop can be very brief). Returning
to the upright (or earlier) position is {lavHa'}. For both {ler} and
{lav}, the direction of motion doesn't matter (left, right, forward,
whatever).
[De'vID]> Can I assume that {much} is used not just for commands, but also
statements? For example: {lol SuvwI'; mIl'oD much}.
Yes.
