_______________________________________________
AFAIK not used in a sentence.
(Lieven, 11/25/2016): The most common way to refer to a magician, like Kalibo, is {mIn yuqwI’} ({yuq} is "outwit, outsmart")… Another expression for magician is {’IDnar lIlwI’} … "perform magic" (as Kalibo does) is {mIn yuq} or {’IDnar lIl}.
SEE:
mIn eye (n)
tojwI' deceiver (n)
toj deceive, trick (v)
SEE ALSO:
mIn yuqwI’ [stage] magician (n)
‘IDnar lIlwI’ magician (n)
