[Tlhingan-hol] {-Ha'} with {-Qo'}

[Rohan Fenwick]

ghItlhpu' De'vID, jatlh:
> I almost said to someone *{qeylIS pong yIlo'Ha'Qo'} "Don't misuse Kahless' name".
> But I stopped when I realised that {-Ha'} and {-Qo'} can't both be used together.

Can't they? What's the reasoning for that?

> Or can they? What's the natural way to express "Don't V" where V is a verb with {-Ha'}?

{qeylIS pong yIlo'Ha'Qo'} feels like the perfect way to say "don't misuse Kahless's name". Nonetheless, V alone would be okay in some situations as an alternative. With {buSHa'}, for instance, I think it'd be most natural to just go with {yIbuS} "pay attention!" or {yIbuSchoH} "start paying attention!", but that doesn't mean that {yIbuSHa'Qo'} is impossible, or even necessarily less preferable.
