I was trying to express something along the lines of, "Now that Discovery is off the air, I don't have a show to look forward to today." My first thought was something along the lines of: {DaH rInpu'mo' DISqa'vI'rIy, Dach much vI[X]bogh}, where X = "anticipate, look forward to", but we don't seem to have such a verb. {pIH} isn't quite right, I think. It works for a positive sense of anticipating or looking forward to something that will happen ({Such meb 'e' vIpIH}), but not in the negative sense of something which is missed ({Suchbe' meb 'e' vIpIH}). Of course, I could just say something like {rInpu'mo' jI'IQ} but that's not expressing the nuance of anticipation. Suggestions? -- De'vID
