[tlhIngan Hol] When we return from the battlefield, who will we be then ?

[mayqel qunenoS]

thank you voragh for these canon examples !

I would like to ask though, something that I noticed..

the {wa'maHlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey}, means "roll the dice once" ?

what does the {loSlogh boq'egh mI' naghmey mI'} actually mean ? "roll
the dice four times" ? and why do we have the second {mI'} (after the
{naghmey}) ?

the {cha'logh boq'egh qav'ap motlh} means "the usual price is doubled"
? I read the given english translation, but I just want to be sure,
that I understand this correctly.
