<p>Prefixes aren't inherent to the job that <b>-lu'</b> plays.
Using <b>-lu'</b> simply makes you use <i>different</i>
prefixes.</p>
<p>The sentence <b>Daqawlu'taH</b><i> you will be remembered</i> is
simply a pronoun-elided version of <b>SoH Daqawlu'taH.</b> The
prefix doesn't make the indefinite subject work; it simply agrees
in a different way than sentences with subjects. All the <b>-lu'</b>
really means is "no subject here."</p>
<p>I can't see any problem with using <b>-lu'</b> with the
third-person pronouns. First- and second-person pronoun "to be"
sentences use the pronoun itself as the subject; third-person "to
be" sentences can take third-person nouns as their subjects. <b>verengan
ghaHlu'chugh, qurlu'ba'</b><i> If one is a Ferengi, one is
obviously greedy.</i> This is just the no-subject equivalent to
<b>verengan ghaHchugh vay''e', qurba' vay'vetlh.</b><br>
