<div class="">The one thing I’ve noticed about all of the canon
examples cited is that they take the form: [complete Klingon
sentence {rIntaH}. None of them have a subject noun following
{rIntaH}, similar to the way {tu’lu’} never becomes {tu’}
followed by a subject.</div>

<div class="">Maybe that’s a coincidence and a sentence like *taQ
rIntaH DevwI’* is grammatical, but I think we should at least
consider that perhaps that should have been *taQ DevwI’ rIntaH*.</div>

<p>This is true, and I've considered it, but since it's tangential
to the question and unresolved I didn't bring it up. But the text
of TKD says <b>rIntaH</b> can "follow the verb," and calls it a
"two-verb (or two-sentence) construction," so there is reason to
suppose that the text calls for it to immediately follows the
verb. Or maybe "follow the verb" carries an implicit "and any
subject it has." Or maybe it can go either way.<br>
</p>
<p>Without a clear example, this question must remain unanswered.<br>
