Meanings
Usage
Keep ghoS focused on a course or direction. The destination can be its object, while -vo' clearly marks movement away from a source.
Common mistakes
Using jIghoS with an unmarked destination treats the verb as if it had no object, while adding -Daq to naDev breaks a fixed location word.
