[tlhIngan Hol] The all of Hoch

[Steven Boozer]

It depends if by “you all” means “y’all, you guys, you’se guys, etc.” (i.e. you [plural]) or literally “all of you, each and every one, every single one of you”.

Some examples to prime the discussion...

vaj malopmeH tlhIHvaD nob SaSuqpu'
So to celebrate, I've gotten you all a gift. (Hallmark)

tIqwIj Sa'angnIS
I must show you my heart. TKW

SuDal
All of you are boring. CK
vaj SuquvmoH.
[untranslated]  (MO to SuStel 11/96 st.k)

naDev Sughompu' 'ej Qo'noS SuvwI'pu' Hem tlhIH
All of you here, proud warriors of Kronos PB

naDev Sughompu' yIn lutDaj'e' Hegh lutDaj'e' je
Here now, All of you here, Of the life and death  PB

qatlh Sutamchu' tlhIH
Why are you all silent? PB
