LANGUAGE NOTES:
(ghunchu'wI', 7/16/2012):  I once ordered {bIQ neH} to drink at a restaurant. Marc Okrand, sitting across the table from me, suggested that I really meant {bIQ mob}. That would have been proper if I were not having anything else. As I did intend to order food as well, however, my usage was correct. I wanted 'mere water' as opposed to 'water alone'." 
 
(Lieven, qepHom 2017, 11/2017):  An odd number is {mI' mob}. An even number is {mI' mobHa'}. 

PUN:  "mob"

SEE ALSO:
qev 		crowd (v)
wav 		divide (v)

nIteb 		alone, acting alone, on one's own (adv)

ngIq 		singular/individual one, one-by-one (n)
