jaSwa' was referring not to your updated sentence, but to the subject
of this email (which contains your original sentence).
jaSwa':
> I guess I don't understand what you mean with your. I was talking about the time stamp and locative suffix combination. How does that emphasis insomnia? Maybe there's something I'm not seeing.
quljIb thinks you are talking about the sentence beginning {qaStaHvIS
ram...}. The problem with *{ramDaq} was already pointed out earlier,
and the sentence has already been fixed to address this.
The difference between {ram...} and {qaStaHvIS ram...} is that the
first is "at night", while the second is "during the night, throughout
the night".
