So, we could say: Har law'wI'pu' many believe
*Something* tells me that it can't be correct But that*something* can't figure out the why
*law'* means /be many,/ so *law'wI'* means /one who is many.../ whatever that means. Now, there may be a "yeah, but you get it anyway" factor involved here, but looking strictly at the meanings of the pieces, I don't think *law'wI'pu'* means /many of them/ or /group that consists of many;/ I think it means /group of ones who are each many. /Again, whatever that means. But if Okrand were to come out and say that *law'wI'pu'* means /those who are many,/ I wouldn't have any trouble believing him. Better to play it safe for now and just say *ghot law'*/many people./ -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
