If I wrote, {juH Hur vInguvmoH}, would you understand it as "I paint the exterior of the house" ? I would understand that as painting the areas outside of the house: the front yard and back yard, maybe even the street. But not the exterior walls.
Yes, I expect *Hur* means /area outside/ rather than /outer surface./ We have *HurDaq tu'HomI'raHvetlh yIlan*/Get that piece of junk out of here!/ from KCD, which clearly uses *Hur* as /area outside./ /Paq'batlh/ uses it in *qamchIy HurDaq SuvwI'pu'Daj ra' qeylIS SaqSub yIjaH* /Outside Qam-Chee, Kahless tells his warriors To go to the Saq'sub./ This, by the way, unambiguously uses *ra'* as a verb of saying. Then there is *'ach botlhejQo' SuSuvQo' vItlhejbej jIH Hur ghom'a' wIqaD* /Yet you will not join your blades with his, I for one will stand with him To face the hordes outside./ And this, by the way, gives an example of smooshing sentences together to form a single idea: /you won't accompany + you won't fight = you won't fight together./ Anyway, all these examples show that *Hur* means /area outside/ instead of /outer surface./ -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
