Re: [tlhIngan Hol] {'e'} of a sao and quotations

SuStel:

The real question is whether you can say 'e' yIja' tell that. It seems that the answer is no. Whatever you want to report about is either a noun or a quotation.

I'm afraid I can't understand this; doesn't the {'e'} of a sao serve as a noun? ~ Dana'an
