they-them prefix with -moH -'egh with -moH and DoHmoH

Suppose the klingons drive back the romulans from kronos: tlhInganpu'vaD Qo'noS luDoHmoH romuluSnganpu'. Now, lets forget this example, and consider the following one: There's a starship closing in on another ship, and that second starship uses a repellent beam to drive the first ship back. Now, the crew of the ship which has been driven back wants to say "they drove us back from them". Suppose we write: maHvaD DoHmoHta'. The problem here will be, that although there's the null prefix for they-them, this prefix seemingly/apparently works only when the two "they" and "them" are two different groups. In the example above, since the subject and object of DoHmoH are the same, we can't apply the null prefix in question. Perhaps it would be tempting to write: maHvaD DoH'eghmoHta' they caused themselves to back away from us Since with the {-'egh} the object acts on itself, thus overcoming the they-them prefix restriction. But again, there's something seemingly wrong with this sentence too, which I can't identify. So, if I'm correct, the only way we can express the intended meaning is by writing: maHvaD Dujchaj luDoHmoHta'. But am I right, or could the {maHvaD DoH'eghmoHta'} be correct too ? Or could we use the they-them null prefix for cases where the two "they" (subject and object) are in fact the same group ? ~ Qa'yIn

law' with regards to uncountable nouns
by mayqel qunen'oS 01 Jul '20

Suppose we want to say "high (in intensity) electricity". The logical way to say it would be by the use of {vItlh} thus writing {'ul vItlh}. So, if we wanted to say "a great amount of electricity moves this ship", we'd write {Dujvam vIHmoH 'ul vItlh}, since the {'ul vItlh} is obviously singular. But suppose we chose to write this sentence the old-school way by the use of {law'}. How should we treat the {'ul law'} ? As singular or as plural ? Should we write: {Dujvam vIHmoH 'ul law'} or should we write: {Dujvam luvIHmoH 'ul law'} ? With the problem here coming from the fact, that {law'} is defined as "be many, be numerous". There's been a Ca'Non example of the {'ul law'}, but unfortunately it doesn't shed much light with regards to how the {'ul law'} is to be treated. The Ca'Non example is the following: {chIch vay' 'oy'moHmeH 'oy'naQ 'ul law' tlhuD 'oH} Painstiks ... emit a highly charged shock for the express purpose of inflicting pain. S32 ~ Qa'yIn
