Y!vetadohi
Y!vetadohi at M ii.47 is an obscure expression. The reading is established; otherwise one might think of a
corrupted y!v(a) etad ahos"(pi) or y!va -- d -- ev' -- ahosi "was it really so?" or: "did you really have that
thought?" Neumann, Mittl. Sammlung2 1921; ii.381, trsls "gar so sehr drängt es dich" (are you in such a
hurry?), and proposes reading (on p. 686, note) y!v' etado hi pi, leaving us wondering what etado might be.
-- Could it be a distorted y!yetar (n. ag. of y!yeti, Caus. y!)?
