Yes, to me too, actually. Was a bad example. About the {-mo'}, it's 
again a point of punctuation and also one of intonation. It also shifts 
the meaning of the phrase a little.

HoS, val, vaQ 'ej Duj Doj ra'mo' vIqIH vIneH.
It's not because of all the things, only because of the commanding part.

HoSmo', valmo', vaQmo' 'ej Duj Doj ra'mo' vIqIH vIneH.
Now IT IS because of all the things.

HoS, val, vaQ 'ej Duj Doj ra'. vIqIH vIneH.
Here I talk about things and about the fact that I want to meet him.

I appreciate your comments.
