     I actually expected {So'wI' yIchu'Ha'}, since Okrand really likes to
reuse material and that was, of course, the Kruge's first line in ST3. It
made the {Ha'} make more sense. Still, when I listened to it through the high
quality 2" speaker of my Walkman, that's how it sounded. Tonight, I use
headphones on the nice tape deck (though reviewing a line repetitively is
much less convenient there).
