Tell me your opinion on the verb {wam}.
Would you use it, in the context of "someone being hunted" as in "someone being persecuted because of his religious/political/sexual etc orientation" ?
And if not, then what the jay' would you use instead ?
You might find a metaphorical use for *wam* in the context of persecution, but it would just be a metaphor. I'd probably go with *'Irgh* /bully, intimidate, pick on, harass/ to express what you describe. *lalDanDajmo' lu'Irgh*/they harass him/her because of his/her religion./ You could express the severity of this further. *lalDanDajmo' lu'Irgh; lutlha' 'ej lutIch.* -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
