<p>My objection is the same whichever phrase you use. As some people
are fond of saying, Klingon is not a code for English (or Greek).
You don't just translate individual phrases one-to-one and just
plug them into a formula to make a sentence. English users
casually toss out <i>we all</i> and <i>you all</i> (usually as <i>y'all</i>)
when they mean just <i>we</i> and <i>you (plural).</i> And only
when they're speaking certain dialects of English.</p>
<p>If your sentence would make just as much sense without the <i>all,</i>
LEAVE IT OUT.</p>
