This word not only intensifies whatever is being said, it
turns the whole phrase into an invective. Alone among the
adverbials, {jay'} always comes at the end of the sentence.
{qaStaH nuq jay'} "What the #$*@ is happening?"
{mIch 'elpu' jay'} "They've entered the #$%@ sector!"

A klingon ship is traveling and suddenly picks up the following transmission:
{jabbI'ID bojemchugh, vaj mIch bo'elpu' jay'}
Where does the {jay'} refer ? To the {vaj mIch bo'elpu'} only ? Or to
the whole phrase {jabbI'ID bojemchugh, vaj mIch bo'elpu' jay'} ?</pre>

<p>Using <b>jay'</b> is virtually identical to saying <i>damn it</i>
at the end of an English sentence. <i>If you detect a
transmission, then you've entered the sector, damn it!</i> To
what does the <i>damn it</i> apply?<br>
