The fact that there are "shaded" interpretations does not bother me.
Even looking at the English word "go", sometimes it uses a preposition, som=
etimes not. When a child is acquiring language (and face it, we are like ch=
ildren in that regard, learning new words and usages) she will use it the w=
ay she first learned it until further input from better speakers (in our ca=
se, Maltz thru MO) says otherwise.
I go to the store.
I go to the school ... oops, I don't need "the" ... I go to school.
I go to home ... oops, I don't need "to" ... I go home.
And so we learn. Why should tlhIngan Hol be any different?
