jonpIn ghaH ngaH'e' qar'a'? 'ay'mey ngo'Daq patlhDaj vInej. vItu'be'
'ach Sogh moch ghaH 'e' vItu'.

I've been compensating for my confusion about ranks by looking up the
context in which characters were introduced. I didn't notice ngaH
being identified by rank before, but it surprises me to see that she's
a {Sogh}, as at least two of her subordinates were {Sogh} as well.

{ya Sogh} sounds very odd to me. "Lieutenant Tactical Officer"? Was
{ya} supposed to be a name?

I'm trying to hear the question mark, but the terminal {jay'} doesn't
seem to be cooperating. I really want there to be a {'a'} somewhere.
We've heard {'entepray' 'a'?} from Klaa, and I don't think it would be
completely out of the question (!) to do something similar here. But
that's definitely more of a stretch than leaving out an implied
{muqop'a'}, especially since {muqop} is implied a moment earlier, so I
should just shut up.

wa' Doch 'oH'a' 'opvam'e'? In English, "some are" if you're talking
about a count of things, but "some is" if you're talking about a part
of a thing. The difference would probably be mirrored by {'op Doch}
and {Doch 'op} in Klingon. Is {'op} alone singular or plural when it
means "some (of them)"? If it's plural, {'e' _lu_tlhoj 'op}.
