If the opinion of someone with less fluency struggling to understand meanin=
g is of any help=2C I'd be happy to share what I would interpret from DaHHa=
' and SIbI'Ha'.
I would interpret DaHHa' as being very general in it's restriction. It wou=
ld mean that this is not the right time. It could refer to holding off fro=
m just this instant moment=2C but more likely I would interpret it as sayin=
g to hold off until much later. SIbI'Ha'=2C on the other hand=2C seems to =
be saying to draw things out or be patient=2C but not necessarily to delay =
long term. Thus in the Monopoly game (chaw'vam yIpol 'ej SIbI'Ha' yIlo' pa=
gh 'oH yImech)=2C SIbI'Ha' is saying not to rush into using it=2C but rathe=
r to wait until the proper moment. DaHHa' would have worked too=2C but wou=
ld have felt like a more general restriction rather than the implication to=
wait a moment. I trust the experience of the more fluent speakers here and=
am excited to see how the usage develops going forward=2C but this is how =
I think I would have interpreted the meaning if I had to figure this out on=
my own.
