In September, there was a discussion on Facebook whether it makes sense
to say {qul lIng} "produce a fire". Some suggested this word, while
others said that if your produce something, there must be a remaining
product, so {lIng} might not be the best choice.
Why not? It's possible to {HoS lIng} in canon, and I don't see how fire is less of a product than energy.
During our preparation for the coming qepHom, Marc Okrand had a chance
to forward our question to Maltz, and his answer somehow made both our
suggestions be right. He wrote:
You can {lIng} a fire, but you’re more likely to {chenmoH} or {vemmoH} it.
Didn't you already have this conversation back in 2020?
