[Tlhingan-hol] nuq bop bom: 'ay' HutmaH wa': <ngoD tetlh>

[Qov]

At the end of 'ay''a' loS, merchant captain Mahoun and agricultural 
scientist 'eSSIm were expressing distrust and suspicion of one 
another, yet calling each other by bang pongmey all the same. 
Complicated relationship.  This 'ay''a' rewinds a little to retell 
part of loS from another point of view before continuing the story.

SKI: Essim makes a list to work out what Mahoun is doing.

[68] It amuses me that the etymology of Sotlaw' looks like "is 
apparently in distress" and that I've added a noun marker to give the 
same meaning again. Like French "ma tante" (even "ta ma tante" in 
Northern Quebec).
