I understand your reasoning, and it convinces me.
But doesn't this reasoning mean that the {tlhIngan maH! taHjaj!}, is
wrong too ? Isn't the {tlhIngan maH! taHjaj!}, actually {tlhIngan maH!
taHjaj 'e'!} ?
I know that it is blasphemous to dare and question something which has
been celebrated as a feat of linguistic ingenuity.. I really do. But,
- holy sith ! -, I'm sure as hell, that if a mere mortal had come up
with this phrase, he would have been executed on the spot.
~ m. qunen'oS
