[Tlhingan-hol] Interactions between verb suffixes

[De'vID]

QeS:

{Suvchu'meH / ghaH SuvqangmoHchu' / molor}
{[Molor's action] fueled his will to fight / To the death.}

That's a good example showing that the {-qang} applies to the object
of {SuvmoH}.

QeS:
> and {HeghqangmoHlu'pu'} (TKD p.45) show that this isn't necessarily the

The idea of an unknown/indefinite/general subject being willing to do
something strikes me as odd.

Consider {wIleghlu'} "someone sees us", "we are seen". I can only
interpret {wIleghqanglu'} as "we are willing to be seen", and not as
"someone unknown is willing to see us", "it is someone unknown's will
that we are seen".

But maybe Klingons don't have a problem understanding the sentence that way.
