The notes taken while working with Maltz indicate that he balked at
{vajHa'} ("not thus?") but accepted {Do'Ha'} "unfortunately". Information
on other adverbials has not yet been uncovered, though it is probably in
the notes somewhere.

>From the "Get Out of Jail Free" card in Klingon Monopoly:

{chaw'vam yIpol 'ej SIbI'Ha' yIlo' pagh 'oH yImech.}
"This card may be kept until needed or traded."

This suggests that {SIbI'Ha'} would be understood as something like "later,
eventually".
