How to do things with a law'/puS construction ...

Express degree of certainty: qamwIj tIn law' qamlIj tIn puS 'e' vIHar/vISovchu'/vIHon.  = I believe/am certain/doubt that my feet are bigger than yours.
Use -mo': qamwIj tIn law' qamlIj tIn puS. ngoDvammo' qamlIj vIgho'. = Because my feet are bigger than yours, I step on yours.
Ask a yes/no question: qamwIj tIn law' qamlIj tIn puS, qar'a'?  = Are my feet bigger than yours?
Use -DI': tugh HIvje'lIj buy' law' HIvje'wIj buy' puS. qaSpu'DI' HIrI'. = Call me when your mug is fuller than mine.
Use -taHvIS: rut 'IQchoHghachwIj 'ugh law' tIqwIj 'ugh puS. qaStaHvIS jISaQ. = I cry when my impending sadness outweighs my heart.
