[Tlhingan-hol] do {vIttlhegh} become {ngo'} or {qan}?

[Robyn Stewart]

As soon as you use the word qIH you establish that it is a first time meeting, so chu' is unnecessary. I don't quite understand the English target, so here are some ideas.

DaHjaj juppu' vIqIH.
qen ghaH vIqIH. 
wej ben chaH vIqIH. 
DaHjaj maghomchuq. 

You also have a noun suffix (ma') on a verb, which is very confusing. 

- Qov
