I told you not to interrupt me 
I told you, "Don't interrupt me!" 
"Don't interrupt me" I told you. (TKD)

(HQ 12.2:8; sic! {lu-} omitted):  Another verb, {ghang}, is used to express the idea of a premature ending. If, using the same examples, the voyage is cut short or the song is interrupted before the final part is sung, one would say:  
        leng [lu]ghangDI' SuvwI'pu' 'IQ chaH 
    When the warriors end the voyage prematurely, they are sad.
         bom [lu]ghangDI' SuvwI'pu' tlhutlh chaH 
     When the warriors end the song prematurely, they drink. 
Note that the voyage and the song cannot end themselves. Someone has to end them."
