If you can't put *reH *in its place and get exactly the same meaning (with altered emphasis), you're not using it right.
Interesting point. However, because I fear we're being slowly led astray from the original subject (of this thread), I would like to say that I'm not searching for a way to say something like "each dog I tickle bites me". I'm (was) searching for a way to say "every time I tickle a dog, he bites me". Obviously {Hochlogh} can work perfectly for situations like the last one. qunnoH ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta' On 31 Oct 2016 4:16 pm, "SuStel" <sustel@trimboli.name> wrote:

However, as lieven pointed out, if we analyze {Hochlogh} we will see that it possesses {Hoch} and {-logh}, which brings its "literal" meaning awfully close (in a good way), to "each/every time".
So, why not use it in order to describe the "each time" concept ?
*-logh* doesn't mean "times"; it turns the number it's attached to into an adverbial meaning how many times something happens. *Hochlogh* refers to the number of times something happens (all the times!), not each individual instance. If you can't put *reH *in its place and get exactly the same meaning (with altered emphasis), you're not using it right.
