Notes
The verb jo' means "blow into a container of some kind" in the sense of "inflate, fill with air, blow up" ("blow up" like to blow up a balloon, not "explode").
It's used for blowing up a balloon, blowing into a paper bag (so you can then hit the bag against something so that it explodes with a loud noise), whatever it is that glass blowers do, and, yes, blow bubbles.
It's not the same as SuS, which can also be used for blowing out a candle. With SuS you're blowing into/onto/at something, but the air gets out of the thing (or never goes in it). With jo', the air is trapped in the thing and can't come out until you let it out (or the thing breaks).
The object of both verbs is the thing you blow into/onto/at. If you use a -Daq construction, it implies that you missed - you blew towards the object, but the air bypassed it.
