So lemme get this straight. You guys think that *ghaH* is for any
singular thing the speaker believes can communicate in some way, *'oH*
is for any singular thing the speaker believes cannot communicate in any
way, *chaH* is for plural beings capable of using language regardless of
what you think about them, and *bIH* is for plural things not capable of
using languages regardless of what you thinking about them. Except at
night, on Tuesday, of course.
You don't think that Okrand just got tired of saying "capable of using
language" and shortened it to "communicate"?
What are the odds of getting a Royal Fizbin, anyway?
