Lets say there is a person, who is speaking/writing about a fact which
according to him is true..

As soon as he finishes his speech/passage, another person wants to ask him
"how do you know it (this fact) ?

Would it be correct for him to say {chay' DaSov ?} And by the use of the
prefix {Da-} the {Sov} having as an elided object the entire preceding
speech/passage ?


In Star Trek VI, there's this exchange.

Prison warden: Daq SovlaHbe'taH qIrq.
Chang: DaSovbej'a'?  bISuDrup'a'?
