however, the question now arises: because {Qap} can take an object, we can say {noH wIQap}. but can the {luj} take an object as well ? because if it cannot take an object, then we can't say {noH wIluj}, and we can only say things like {vanDI' noH, maluj}. so, can the {luj} take an object ? qunnoH jan puqloD ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta' On 30 Dec 2016 3:11 pm, "De'vID" <de.vid.jonpin@gmail.com> wrote:

the {noH QapmeH} is indeed pretty straightforward for "to win a war", but does the {lujbe'lu'} mean that we can say {noH lujlu'} for {someone lost the war} ?
also, are the {noH Suv} and {noH ghob} acceptable, for "to fight a war" ?
KGT p.47: <Thus, it is possible to say {noH ghob} or {noH Suv}, both meaning "He/she fights a war," or {may' ghob} or {may' Suv}, meaning "He/she fights a battle," but it is not normally acceptable to say {veS ghob} ("He/she fights a warfare") or {vIq Suv} ("He/she fights a combat").>
