TKD 6.7 (add) says that "the adverbial precedes the object-verb-noun
construction". In the above example, {'e'} is the object of the verb
{Sov}, so I think it's correct. – Or did I forget something?
I somehow feel there is a canon example for this (x not 'e'), but I just
can't remember.
{DuraS tuq tlhIngan yejquv patlh luDub 'e' reH lunIDtaH DuraS be'nI'pu' lurSa' be'etor je. ngoQvam luchavmeH ghawran maghpu' be'nI'pu'.}
"The sisters of the House of Duras, Lursa and B'Etor, are constantly seeking a higher standing for the House of Duras within the Klingon High Council."
Note that {reH} directly precedes {lunaHtaH} here, and not {luDub}. "By the book", the {reH} should have preceded the {'e'}, but {'e'} is not a typical object.
The Klingon wiki makes the following claim:
<6.2.5. Sentences as Objects...
Adverbs with 'e' come after the object sentence and before the 'e', e.g. paw Duj wej 'e' vIlegh "I haven't seen the ship arrive yet". [HQ v1n2p11]>
However, I'm unable to locate the reference. HolQeD 1:2 p.11 doesn't seem to have this sentence:
It's possible that the sentence is from HolQeD, but that there's a typo in the issue or page number. Unfortunately, HolQeD 1:2 and HolQeD 2:1 are two of the issues that I don't have in printed form, so I can't check. Can anyone else?
