<pre wrap="">{verenganarvo' naDev pawlaw' (Hat SeHmeH janwIj)}. With the intended
meaning being "but the air conditioner, apparently came here from
ferenginar".
The greek/english original sentence, wishes to express the
"seemingly/apparently" meaning, with regards to "where the a/c came
from" ; not with regards to "its arrival".
But when I shoved the {-law'} on the {paw}, the "seemingly/apparently"
meaning went on the {paw}. So the klingon sentence took the meaning :
"but the airconditioner (seemingly arrived = i.e. perhaps it didn't
arrive) from ferenginar)"</pre>

<b>-law'</b> doesn't only apply to the verb; it applies to the
entire sentence. <b>verenganarvo' naDev pawlaw'pu' Hat SeHmeH
janwIj</b> <i>my temperature-control device arrived here from
Ferenginar—I believe this to be true.</i> It doesn't say which
part of the sentence is uncertain—maybe you're not sure it has
arrived here instead of somewhere else; maybe you're not sure it
came from Ferenginar; maybe you're not sure it is the air
conditioner that arrived; maybe you're not sure it arrived anywhere
at all.<br>

<pre wrap="">I can't place the {-law'} on a noun, so my next thought would be :
"why don't I use an adverb".
But even if I wrote {chaq verenganarvo' naDev paw (Hat SeHmeH
janwIj)}, then again there would be a problem. Since the adverb refers
to the verb, then again the meaning would be "perhaps it arrived'. So
dead end again.</pre>

I would never have interpreted <b>chaq</b> in this sentence to
refer only to the verb; I'd have applied it to the entire sentence,
just like <b>-law'.</b><br>
