Re: TECH: more on ZAhO

I think that in the light of my argument, that definition should be
changed. Syntactically, <tag KU> is a <term>, and so the tag should function
the same as in other terms (such as <tag sumti>). At least one version of the
draft textbook introduces selbri tcita in this way.
The difference does not matter much except for BAhO.
(You may note a further instance of my campaign to make the semantic structure
agree with the syntactic structure. I think this is important as a principle).
I don't know what "IJ" means.
