When we say: {taj vISampu'} we mean "I have located the knife, and the event of my locating the knife is over".
And as soon as the knife has been located, a new reality has begun, the reality of "the knife having been located".
I noticed earlier in the thread, that you wrote: "The addition of choH changes a quality verb into an action verb".
So, suppose we write:
{jIQuchchoHpu'}
The way I understand this sentence, is:
I have become happy, and the event which has been completed, is the "my becoming". But the sentence doesn' t specify whether my happiness is over.
In contrast with the {jIQuchpu'} which means "I've been happy", specifying though that this happiness is over.
Would you agree with this analysis ?
Yes, entirely. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
