<div style="direction:ltr; font-family:Tahoma; color:#000000; font-size:10pt">My "feel" for the Klingon language is that there is probably sort of set phrase for this, similar to {X Q law' Y Q puS}, but that's impossible to guess.<br>
<br>
I think your sentence rather gets the idea across; the fact that you sometimes think of six such things sort of implies that you'd also sometimes think of five or four, unless there's some reason to think you'd do it in bunches of six.<br>
<br>
You can make a longer phrase explaining {not DuHbe'wI' vIHarbogh law' law' jav DuHbe'wI' law' puS}, or use {'aqroS}, but I suspect that would severely change the focus of your statement, though; your point is that the impossible things you believe are surprisingly
many, not that they are few.<br>
<br>
> toH, rut nIQ vISoppa' jav DuHbe'bogh ghu' vIHarpu'.<br>
<br>
I think you probably want the {rut} to modify {vIHarpu'} rather than {vISoppa'}, by comparison with {bortaS bIr jablu'DI' reH QaQqu' nay'.}.<br>
<br>
Also, {jav} after {DuHbe'bogh}.<br>

<p dir="ltr">What's a good way to express the concept "as many as", "up to"?</p>
