So, point I've been confused on.

qorDu'mey : families
Or,
qorDu'pu' : families


The practice lessons list "qorDu'wIj" as "my family", which indicates families are considered an object or unit, rather then a being capable of speaking.  I can accept that (and the interesting cultural concepts it engenders), but is it right?
Or, is family one of those implicit plurals, and you can't express a group of families directly?
