*targhwIj yIHoH* /kill my targ!
/*targhwIj yIHoHneS* /kill my targ! (showing extreme deference)

/That is the complete difference between the two. Aside from expressing 
deference, the two sentences mean exactly the same thing. Whether you 
translate the deference as "your honor" or "pretty please" or just by 
getting on your knees and putting your hands together, the meaning is 
the same.
