         Glosses: cloud

         Comments: In many languages it would be difficult to speak of ‘a cloud coming up in the west,’ for this would seem to imply that a cloud was actually rising from below the earth. In some languages it is better to speak of ‘a cloud getting larger’ or, in the specific context of {S:04201205400018}, one may translate ‘when you see a cloud coming to you from the west.’
