I replied to the other messages before I saw yours. Good points. So you
don't think it's weird if someone referred to his {wIvpu'} if it refers to
a group of people?
I think I'm going with {wIvwIj} in my translation anyway, since {wIvwI'} is
ambiguous (it could mean "chooser"). Maybe seeing the context will make it
more clear what I'm trying to say.
