Notes
From a single email in 1999 we learn of a slang use for this word:
>Though not common, it is also possible to use tatlh with
>the reflexive suffix -'egh ("do something to oneself") to
>convey a meaning similar to that of chegh:
>
> pa'Daq jItatlh'egh "I return to the room"
>
>(pa' "room," -Daq "locative suffix," jItatlh'egh "I
>return myself" consisting of jI- "I," tatlh "return,"
>'egh "reflexive suffix")
>
>The tatlh'egh form seems to suggest that the doer of the
>action is
>forcing himself/herself to do something, perhaps because it
>is difficult or not desirable.
