<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Personally, I'd prefer placing it right after the noun, because it
<b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>feels<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b> more direct, and the meaning of the sentence becomes
immediately clearer, especially in cases where we don't have a
"simple" subject, but a more "complex" one, as for instance noun-noun
constructions, {-meH}ed nouns, {-bogh}ed nouns, or even an entire
{-bogh} phrase with it's own subject and object.
Now, one could perhaps argue that klingons wouldn't use "complex" subjects..</pre>

<p>Except we see plenty of such subjects. Two examples:<br>

<ul>
<li>Noun-noun, relative clause with subject and object,
apposition, title: <b><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);

background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-style:

<li>Purpose clause: <b>jIpaSqu'mo' narghpu' qaSuchmeH 'eb</b>

</ul>
<p>If one argues that Klingons don't use these constructions in
subjects, one is wrong.<br>
