Apologies for being thick, but I don’t understand what {latlh} is doing in the sentence {wa'SaD euro latlh joq DapoQ.} “You require one thousand Euros and/or another one”?

vIghro’vam  tIQ wagh law’ wa’SaD [euro]mey wagh puS.

vIghro’vam tIQ DaneHchugh vaj wa’SaD [euro] vIpoQ. bImImchugh, ghur DIlmeH Huch.

wa’SaD [euro] chonobchugh, chaq vIghro’vam tIQ qanob. Huchvam Daghurchugh, vIghro’vam tIQ qanobbej. Huch yap chonobchugh, vIghro’vam tIQ qanob ‘ej peghlIj vIlIj.

[You have to give him reasons to pay more than 1,000 euros if you are going to be vague about the price, and the price would never be that high for a legal purchase of a cat.]
