[tlhIngan Hol] {law'} {puS} construction with {je} "too"

[Will Martin]

Just to add that “too” is highly optional, since it doesn’t add meaning to the sentence(s).

{jaS yoH law’ jag yoH puS. mang yoH law’ jag yoH puS.}

Saying two sentences with a common context says what you mean just fine. Anyone following the context gets what you mean. You just want to use {je} because the English version says “too”.
