Voragh:
>> As used in canon:
>>
>> DaH Heraj yIchoH
>> Alter your course now. (ST5 notes)
>>
>> HIvHe yIchoHmoH
>> Alter the attack course! ST5

Qov:
> This is interesting. Someone recently posted citing HIvHe yIchoHmoH as
evidence that choH requires -moH to be transitive, yet that contradicts
both the example from the ST5 notes and the gloss of "alter," which in
English is always transitive.

How canon are these "notes" though?  Do they include earlier drafts of
script lines which were subsequently changed?

Or maybe {HIvHe yIchoHmoH} is "cause it (the ship?) to alter (its) attack
course"?

{woj choHwI'} and {HoS choHwI'} would suggest that {choH} is transitive by
itself.
