Ahh, of course, grabbed the wrong prefix.  Been trying to not reference charts, and just use what's in my brain.
  However, in the original construction, I was meaning to think:

  HIvje'vo' vItlhutlh :  From the cup, I drink (it)

  The implied (it) is the liquid DO in a previous msg.  Would that change the argument about -vo'?  It is the "it" which is being drunk (moved) away from the cup.
