[Tlhingan-hol] mIl'oD veDDIr SuvwI': 17. ghojwI'pu'lI' tISaH

[Steven Boozer]

QeS:
> [1] We have little canon for {toS}, so I'm using it like a normal verb of
> motion: {vI-} for motion to, {jI-} for motion on (cf. HQ 7:4). {bebDaq
> jItoStaH} "I am climbing on the roof", {bebDaq vItoSlI'} "I am climbing
> ONTO the roof".

Our knowledge of how the "vertical motion" verbs is limited:

toS 	climb (v)

  jItoS
  I climb. KLS

ghIr  descend (v)
Sal 	ascend (v)

  SaqSub'e' muSHa'bogh pawmeH leng qeylIS HuDmey Sal ghIq ghIr 
  And Kahless traveled to his beloved Saq'sub, over the mountains (PB)

  HuDmeyvo' ghIr chaH 
  Over the hills, they came. (PB)

pum 	fall (v)

  bIpum 		You fall. KLS

  pumDI' 'etlh 	when the blade falls (st.k 11/05/99)
  pumDI' DaS 	when the boot falls (st.k 11/05/99)
  pumDI' 'obmaQ 	when the ax falls (st.k 11/05/99)
  pumDI' nagh 	when the stone falls (st.k 11/05/99) 
  pumDI' rutlh 	when the wheel falls (st.k 11/05/99)


Unfortunately, the two examples from paq'batlh don't address QeS's concerns.
