<p>I would use {ngoH}, meaning "smear" (TKD) or "paint using fingers" (KGT).<br>
I don't believe we have any canonical sentences using this word, but from the original gloss being "smear", I strongly suspect it takes the "ink" one uses as its object.<br>

<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">When the the verb DIj "paint with a pigment stick" was explained, we learned that it can be used for producing a visual image, even if no paint or pigment stick is involved, for example with a pencil, or with
a device or computer software.</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Assume we want to say: "while the injured commander was dying, he drew on the ground with his blood, the location of enemy ship". How would we write it ?</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Would the following be correct ?</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">"the commander, in order to show the location of the enemy ship, painted the ground; in order to paint he used his blood"
</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Now, because I *know* someone is itching to say "you don't paint the location of the enemy ship"..</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">This is an example used to ask, how we actually specify, "the what is being used to draw something".</p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">So, there is no actual need for someone trying to be smart, saying crap like "the commander would just say the location instead of painting it".</p>
