  SoQ Dajatlh 
  you speak an address/lecture
  you deliver an address
  you make a speech (st.k June 1997)

  qama'pu'vaD SoQ Dajatlh 
  you make a speech to the prisoners. (st.k June 1997)

HQ 12.2:8-9:  For an opera, play, story, speech, and so on, the final portion is its {bertlham}. This word usually refers to the last aria or other musical portion in an opera, last speech in a play, last sentence or so of a story or an address. The bertlham of a well-known work is often well-known itself, as is its beginning ({bI'reS}).

[WRT to {SoQmey} a {bertlham} is a conclusion, summation, peroration, etc.]

Don't confuse with {QIch} "speech (i.e. vocal sounds)" and {Quv} "coordinates" (i.e. an address).
