_______________________________________________

(HQ 10.4):  Maltz pointed out that, in flight, a bird's wings {laq} (the bird is said to {laqmoH} its wings) but when a banner or sail flaps, the correct word to use is {joq} "flap, flutter, wave". 

Use {Saq} ["land"] if a bird alights on the ground, {tlhot) if it lands on the water.  (HQ 10.4)
