<p>No, but I didn't say he can't say his sentence because
Klingon pronouns can't be used without an antecedent.
Indeed, I didn't say he can't say that sentence. He was
pushing the boundary of what was acceptable, because he
claimed his proposed pronoun <b>'oH</b> was referring to an
antecedent <b>ngoDvam</b> that wasn't present in the
sentence, but what he was doing was functionally equivalent
to using <b>'e'</b> as a subject, which definitely <i>isn't</i>
allowed.<br>
</p>
<p>If you have to say it this way, just state <b>ngoDvam</b>
outright and you'll have a much stronger sentence.</p>

<p>I'm not being strict. I've said more than once now that it's
grammatical, but not necessarily the best sentence you can make.
mayqel asked if he could say something, and I said yes, but you
may want to consider such-and-such.<br>
