[tlhIngan Hol] What Maltz does: {'otHa'}

I think ambitransitive isn't the right word here. Ambitransitive verbs can
be intransitive or transitive, like {Soj vISop} vs. {jISop}. This one
reminds me more of Chinese and Thai in which some verbs are their own
causative verb. But I cannot remember the correct term for this type of
verb...
