Do you have a specific issue with {ngemDaq targh yInej} or
{qawHaqDaq<br>
ta yInej}?</blockquote>

ghItlh De'vID:<br>
<br>
<div>>I have no problem accepting {ngemDaq targh yInej}, but I
wasn't sure about {qawHaqDaq}, or things like {tetlhDaq},
{memDaq}, {tameyDaq}, >etc. If the parameters of the search is
not a physical location, is {-Daq} still the right suffix to use?<br>
<br>
{MO yItlhob.}<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>>Also, what if I want to leave the search target
unspecified? e.g., "Search (in) the forest", "Search (in) the
data banks"?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>>Actually, "Search (the) database" was the idea I originally
wanted to express, and I first wrote down {qawHaqDaq nej}, but
then it seemed >wrong to me when I looked at it.</div>
<br>
vIja:<br>
My instinct is to go with {ngem yInej} for "Search (in) the forest,"
and {qawHaq nej} for "Search (in) the database." "Search the
catalogue for the book," I'd render {mem yInej 'ej paq botu'}.<br>
