Thank you for your quick reply!

I think I understand what you mean. If we want to say that someone teaches somebody else Klingon grammar (as a general fact), we could say:
*ghaHvaD tlhIngan Hol pab ghojmoH*
But if I want to say that someone couldn't understand the Klingon grammar, but with someone else's help she or he can now understand, we could say:
*ghaHvaD tlhIngan Hol pab ghojchoHmoH*
However, I still cannot understand this other canon example: *DaH jIbwIj vISay'nISmoH*. Shouldn't it be here *vISay'nISchoHmoH*? I'm afraid I'm not really understanding it yet...
