[tlhIngan Hol] Adverbiality and the verb {Da}

Considering that some adverbials, like {motlh}, are also verbs, I have long
wondered if one can essentially use verbs as adverbials. The difference
would show up in our punctuation, which might be a moot point given what is
known of Klingon punctuation.


Example: {mer; SuvlaH verengan}
"Surprisingly, the Ferengi can fight." (Literally, "It surprises; the
Ferengi can fight."

In speech of course, the semicolon would be audible only as a pause, if at
all.
