No need to apologize, Voragh, your canon wisdom is always welcome! Thank you!

> Yes, it seems generally right to me. Use *-choH* when you want to describe an action changing one state into another, not just if you describe an action that might involve a change of state at some point that you're not talking about. When you say *jIbwIj vISay'nISmoH,* the washing you're talking about logically implies a change of state from unclean to clean, but the action you're trying to depict isn't the change of state; it's the act of washing.

Thank you for taking the time to answer!
