I've been corrected for using such a construction, in which a
noun stands in the place of a first or second person subject or
object. Some think this violates the rule of rom <accord>,
which says the prefix must agree with the subject and object,
because (and this is the part I dispute) nouns, common or
proper, are inherently third person. This second part is not a
rule in Klingon, and I maintain that in such cases the noun is
an appositive to the unexpressed pronoun.</div>
