There's something which I can't stop wondering, when {-vaD} is being used this way.. Lets take the sentence {tera'vo' Qo'noSvaD taj vIngeH}, and lets assume that by {Qo'noS} I mean the "people of kronos". When we read it as "from earth (for the benefit of) the people of kronos", then can't it mean too something like: "I send it from earth, to someone unspecified, but for the benefit of the people of kronos" ? Why do the people of kronos *have* to be the recipient ? Can't I be sending the knife, lets say to the alien ambassador, of the species which threatens to invade kronos, so that he will cancel their imminent invasion ? ~ changan qIj
