<div>Makes sense to me. At worst, I'd probably interpret it as a
short or clipped version of something like <b><juH>
vIghItlh 'e' vIHechbe'. <jul> vIghItlh 'e' vIHech.</b> <i>"I
didn't mean to write 'juH', I meant to write 'jul'." </i>(Or
replace <b>vIghItlh</b> with <b>jIjatlh</b> for spoken
Klingon.) My guess is that most uses of <b>Hech</b> will have
an <b>'e'</b>, but I don't see why it couldn't work with a noun
object now and then.</div>

<p>A clipped form of something long that just <i>happens</i> to
exactly resemble something shorter that is the Englishy way you
want to say it anyway is just a <i>little</i> too convenient for
my tastes.<br>
