I was trying to express "as soon as I had started studying", trying to give emphasis to the fact that "my starting" had been completed. But now I wonder: In the {jIHaDchoHta'DI'}, is it possible for the {-ta'} to refer to the {-choH}, or does it exclusively refer to the verb ?

oh yes, you're right ! I actually thought of using the {-DI'}, but some wires in my mind short-circuited and I thought it was a type 7 suffix !

I can't believe I made this mistake..

Indeed ! I always seem to forget the existence of the {-lI'}.

The -ta' here is unnecessary, and could be interpreted in multiple ways; it's not strictly wrong. But if you just said jIHaDchoHDI', you're saying as soon as I begin studying, which is obviously what you're going for.


'ej jIbuS 'e' vInID,

'e' vInIDDI'


'ej SIbI' muHotchoH yIQ vay' !

vay' yIQ

or even better:

yIQwI'


ghIq jIleghmeH nachwIj vItlhe'taH, 'ej ghIch yIQ vItu' !


vItlhe'lI' would work so much better here.
