I agree it would be too much having them all at the beginning of the
chapter, as it would fill an entire page (or more) and would be more
than the actual text of the paragraph. For usage, I think it's much
better to have only the examples, and a separate note pointing to the
page at the end which has all the adverbials.

An improvement of the list would be having the suffixes grouped by
suffix type. Having them alphabetically is good for lookup when
translating from Klingon, but when you are working on a Klingon
translation, it's good for beginners to have a quick overview.

Just like this, or similar. Don't need much space:

Type 	Sort 				Suffixes
1 	Size/Importance 		-'a', -Hom, -oy
2 	Number 				-pu', -Du', -mey
3 	Qualification 			-Hey, -qoq, -na'
4 	Possession/Specification 	-wIj, -lIj, -vam, -vetlh
5 	Syntactic Markers 		-Daq, -vo', -mo', -vaD, -'e'
