I thought it might have to do with trying to analyze {qav'ap}. At the same qepHom 2020 {‘ap} was defined as "dues, toll". Examples: HIjmeH 'ap fee paid when bringing certain commodities into a jurisdiction (n) HIjmeH 'ap pIn customs officer (n) HuqmeH 'ap excise tax, sales tax, VAT (n) ngeSlIch ‘ap interest (on a loan) (n) Thanks, Voragh -----------------------------------Original Message----------------------------------- From: Lieven L. Litaer via tlhIngan-Hol quote: Maltz didn't know what {qav} by itself was, but he said he wouldn't be surprised to learn that {qav'ap} was shortened from {qavmeH 'ap} or something like that at some point in the past.
