Marc was present while we discussed the vocative case in that context
and he didn't seem to object at all to that characterization. I know
he has a talent for making you think he's confirmed whatever you
think, but I think it's just a name-invoking particle without
particular commendation.
The funniest part, to me, was the next day when we were singing
Kumbaya and watching Qanqor suddenly realize that we have being
saying <<'o qeylIS>> all along.
Marc was also dismissive about 'o, like it wasn't really a new word,
was just 'o.
I think the only words he seemed proud of were le'yo' and wel.
