Anyone see a pun in these new grammar words? The only one I can work out is, maybe, {vI'} "sharpshooting, marksmanship, aim" + {Hop} "be remote, far" -- far/remote aim, i.e. beyond the direct object??

{vI'} can also mean "decimal point", so it could be a pun on "Farpoint". I don't know what "Encounter at Farpoint" has to do with indirect objects, though.
