Heh! net Sovbe'.

QaQqu' je, 'ach ghobe', {ghoH} vIHechbejpu'. jatlh DIvI' Hol chovnatlh: "I was irritated and quarrelled with him." But since the warrior in the sabre bear pelt didn't say anything, I guess ghoH is kinda weird here.

jIH:

Qov:
> Oh yeah, roStevan, that's really the worst part, he didn't salute you. 
Haha, for sure. "He didn't salute me, dammit! So I sent twelve men to their deaths!"

In Australia we'd tell him to pour himself a glass of cement. There's no Klingon word for cement.

I'm laughing too much to be offering much more in the way of comment hereafter.

jIH:

Qov:

Now I think about it I remember we also have the lexeme Somraw, so to be safe I might switch back to it. Not that I have a problem with Ha'DIbaH in that sense either, though.

(poD latlh)

jIH:

Qov:
> That would be clearer were it yoSmeyDaq bojaHlaHbe'chugh ... I'm not quite getting rhe connection between bo'ellaHbr'bogh and QIn.

It's intended to be "send messages to districts where you can go, and to cities you cannot enter". I might repeat the {QInmey tIlI'} bit to clarify.

lugh. choH Dachupbogh vIlajqangbej.
