yIjatlh: DaH vIyajlaw'. ("I think I understand it now.")
When you want to express uncertainty about a verb, add {-law'} to it,
don't use {Qub}.
If you REALLY wanted to use {Qub}, you'd have to make the thing you
think the object of your thinking:
vIyaj 'e' vIQub
I think that I understand it
Either sentence can still take other sentence parts:
DaH vIyaj 'e' vIQub
I think I understand it now
vIyaj DaH 'e' vIQub
I now think I understand it
This is true for all sentences-as-objects. But for uncertainty {-law'}
is better.
