<div class="">I’m just curious. What does this rather complex

<p>Emphasis.</p>

<p><i>Klingon One: I intend to become chancellor. I'm powerful!
Clever! Good-looking! Because I'm superior, I deserve to take
on the mantle of chancellor.</i></p>
<p><i>Klingon Two: You certainly are powerful, clever, and
good-looking. But your mother is a Ferengi prostitute. Because

<p>It's not necessarily the most concise way to say something like
this, but it places emphasis on the <i>THAT</i> which your
alternative doesn't. The emphasis makes it clear that it's DESPITE
all those things going for you that you won't become chancellor.
If the second Klingon had simply said:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><b>bIHoSbej. bIvalbej. bI'IHbej. 'ach verengan 'opuHwI' ghaHmo'
SoSlI''e', not Qang Damoj.</b></p>
<p><i>You </i><i>certainly are powerful, clever, and
good-looking. But because your mother is a Ferengi prostitute,
you will never become chancellor.</i></p>
</blockquote>
<p>then the emphasis on the implied <i>despite</i> doesn't appear.<br>
</p>
<p>Anyway, the point of the question was not to convey any
particular idea, it was to construct a grammatical sentence that
included a type 5 suffix on <b>'e'.</b><br>
