I have no problem accepting {ngemDaq targh yInej}, but I wasn't sure about
{qawHaqDaq}, or things like {tetlhDaq}, {memDaq}, {tameyDaq}, etc.  If the
parameters of the search is not a physical location, is {-Daq} still the
right suffix to use?

Also, what if I want to leave the search target unspecified?  e.g., "Search
(in) the forest", "Search (in) the data banks"?

Actually, "Search (the) database" was the idea I originally wanted to
express, and I first wrote down {qawHaqDaq nej}, but then it seemed wrong
to me when I looked at it.
