Can I infer from this that you would also use {lIl} to refer to dressing
as someone or something for e.g. Halloween, i.e. {targh vIlIl} "I'm
going as a targ"? Or would you need to say something like {targh jIH 'e'
vIghet}? What about an actor in a play? 

Also, where is the boundary between {lIl} and {Da}?
