[tlhIngan Hol] lawn mower

[Lieven]

Hi there,

I just found an interesting discussion on the Facebook group:

We have just learned the new word {magh} for "grass-like plant", and 
heard that {magh yotlh} can be translated as "mawn" (i.e. lit. "field of 
grass") (qep'a' 2016)

Now the question arose whether one should translate "lawn mower" as

a) magh yotlh pewI'
or
b) magh pe'wI'

I thought that's intereresting, because on one side, we say "lawn mower" 
in english, on the other hand, the device does not {pe'} the {yotlh}. 
Does it?

I'm curious to see your opinions on that :-)
