It seems to match the English okay. I am not sure what you’re going for, though, so there might be a better way to say it.

You can rely on an unstated deixis, as Okrand suggests in his interview mentioning it. Something like: DIS Dab cha' qanwI'. Sor Hop tu'lu'. Hoch jaj Sor leng wa' qanwI'. Two old people lived in a cave. There was a faraway tree. Every day one old person would travel to the tree. Not very good, perhaps, but it's just meant to illustrate the point. Hop is relative to whatever you're talking about. So talk about something, then describe it as Hop.
