Um...no. The pronoun {'e'} doesn't work that way. It refers to a prior
sentence, not to a noun mentioned in that sentence.
Just {yIngu'} "Identify it!" would probably work.
{'arDIch}, while currently unattested in canon, doesn't set off any
alarm bells for me. I'm not sure I'd use it myself, but I'd understand
it immediately.
