The reason I said it was a half effort was that your example specifically ex=
cluded the obvious solution because you already knew the word you should be u=
sing and instead forced {Hur} into a completely unnecessary role. A full eff=
ort would have involved an example that didn=E2=80=99t have a word like {reD=
} to fill in what you want to argue is a void in Klingon=E2=80=99s capacity o=
f expression that can only be filled by your interpretation of the potential=
 range of meaning of the word {Hur}, which you already know people disagree w=
ith.=20

As for your tumor example, I still don=E2=80=99t see the difference between i=
t escaping from the bone, vs. breaking through the surface of the bone.=20

It can break through the barrier between muscle and bone or between bone and=
 blood. Here, the significance is less the surface than the system into whic=
h the tumor newly invades.=20

Is there a surface example that can=E2=80=99t be handled with the word {veH}=
?
