Ah, and TKD doesn't say quite what I remembered it saying: {-vo'} <from>
This suffix is similar to {-Daq} but is used only when action is in a direction away from the noun suffixed with {-vo'.}
I mistook "action" for motion, since that's usually the kind of action involved. The action must still take place along a path through physical space, though, correct? You couldn't say *{vavnI'wI'vo' Du'vam vIHevpu'} for instance, could you?
In a universe with transporter technology, one *could* say that. It just wouldn't mean mere transfer of ownership. -- De'vID
