<p>Just noticed this line in <i>paq'batlh:</i></p>
<blockquote>
<p>DaH mararchuq<br>
mayIntaHvIS<br>
wa' Dol bIH qa''e' porgh'e' je</p>
<p>We are now connected,<br>
Spirit and body are one,<br>
Until our time comes.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>What's of interest is the sentence <b>wa' Dol bIH qa''e'
porgh'e' je.</b> This demonstrates clearly that when you've got
a "to be" sentence with a topic as well as a noun, the pronoun
agrees with the topic, not the first noun. <b>wa' Dol</b> is
singular; <b>qa''e' porgh'e' je</b> is plural. <b>bIH</b> is
plural. It's not <b>wa' Dol 'oH qa''e' porgh'e' je.</b><br>
