Please change spelling to khuaq. Thanks!

Change done. So 'intelligent' and 'bad', which are homophonous, are now spelt the same way. This makes great sense to me!

Just to clarify: pun on the semantics not intended! I just meant literally that it made great sense to me that the orthography and the phonology should coincide here: that two adjectives that are homophonous (also with same underlying representation) should have the same orthographic representation.
