[tlhIngan Hol] to qaStaHvIS or not to qaStaHvIS

[mayqel qunenoS]

I see.. so if instead of the {DIS law'}, we had lets say {wa'maH DIS}, then
we could omit the {qaStaHvIS}, and just write {wa'maH DIS, ghoghwIj HablI'
wab 'aqroS patlh vI'lo'}, right ?

qunnoH jan puqloD
ghoghwIj HablI'vo' vIngeHta'
SuvwI'pu'qoq Hol tughojmoHta'mo' Satlho'
