It's just a guess, but it might help thinking:

a) Regarding the pun in {yuvtlhe'}, it looks like MO was thinking of the 
transitive form ("press and turn" the lid)

b) The other word we know is {DIng}, which is also close to "turn". Do 
we have any examples for this one?

With this thinking, it seems to me that you {tlhe'} something to make it 
{DIng}.

BTW, don't forget {jIr}, which is intransitive.

Lieven.
