nIqolay Q, reading your suggestions of describing in full, the context of "sweat" and "swell", I agree that they describe adequately the context of these words.
But the problem comes when someone is writting a longer text. In a longer message, if someones stops the flow of his thoughts, in order to describe the context of a word, a problem arises.
The reader shifts his focus from the main subject, to the context of a word you start describing. And what if, few sentences down the line, you need to start describing the context of another word ?
You can explain the context of a word the first time it's used, and then describe it more simply later on, and assume that your reader will be able to make the connection to the earlier more elaborate description. For instance, you can talk about your hand swelling with *ghopwIj tInchoHmoH 'Iw**.* Assuming they properly understand that as a way to talk about swelling, if you say later something like *tInchoHpu'bogh ghopwIj*, the reader will see the verb *tIn* and be reminded of how you used it earlier to talk about swelling. Occasionally having to express a concept in a wordy way is just one of those things you have to deal with if you've chosen to use a language whose vocabulary is invented by one guy a few words at a time.
