bIlugh. I had forgotten about that..

You're right. I wrote it intentionally however, because I remember that the
alien was speaking telepathically through the human, around the neck of
whom, he had wrapped his tentacle.

I felt that the {roj.. Qo' roj..} expressed better (thought grammatically
wrong) the alien's aggression at the moment the event was taking place.
After all who expects an alien to be able to speak fluently english ? (or
klingon..) hehehe. However, I should have noted that my breaking of the
rules was intentional (muqeHHa'jaj qeylIS) ! hahaha

what is a quandary ?

hmm.. I hadn't thought that {Hegh} is intransitive (case in which the
{-eghmoH} would come into play !) I dropped the ball on this one (as
americans say)..

if I had however thought of this problem, I would have gone with a sweet
and simple {peHoH'egh}. I like it because it simple, direct, and most of
all it reminds me of the beautiful, beautiful, oh so beautiful "go scr*@*@
yourselves" ! hehehe

how does this translate exactly ? "we are definitely able to teach
ourselves" ?

SuStel:
> *nuq wIta' boneH* ?

Obviously this means "what do you want us to do"; but isn't this a question
as object ?
