The verb {qeq} is given as "practice, train, prepare".
If I say {moQbara' vIqeq}, then what does it mean ?
"I practice mok'bara" as in "I practice karate" (that is "I know how
it's done") ?
"I practice mok'bara" as in "I'm training so that I'll become better" ?
"I train mok'bara" as in "I grabbed the mok'bara and I caused it to train" ?
"I prepare mok'bara" as in "I grabbed the mok'bara and I'm getting it
ready for something" ?
Consider that the noun {qeq} means "drill (military)".
(Also, I once heard a theory that the insult {taHqeq} originates from {[yI]qeqtaH} in {no' Hol}, i.e., you're insulting your enemy by saying that they'll have to train a lot more before they can best you.)
