On Facebook, Lieven posted a video where he was talking about some of the
new words with Okrand. Okrand glossed {'an} as "be a waste", as a stative
verb instead of a transitive one.

As for the original question, using {-meH} with {-pu'} or {-ta'} seems like
it would mean something like "in order to complete doing something".

{paq vIlaDta'meH juHwIjDaq jIratlh.} "I stayed home to complete/finish
reading the book." I wanted to make "reading the book" a completed action,
so I stayed home. Something like that. It might not translate easily into
English but the usage makes sense.
