<p>No. In this case you need the <b>qaStaHvIS,</b> because <b>DIS
law'</b> is only a time period, not a time stamp. It tells you a
duration; it does not pinpoint a moment.</p>
<p>You could say <b>ben law' ghogh HablI'wIj 'aqroS wab patlh vIlo'</b>
but that would mean <i>many years ago I used my phone's maximum
sound level,</i> but that doesn't tell us anything about how
long you did this.<br>
