If a first officer assassinates a captain for weakness, you'd say *HoD HoH yaS wa'DIch** the first officer kills the captain,* not *HoD HeghmoH yaS wa'DIch** the first officer is fatal to the captain,* even though the sentence is perfectly grammatical. Again, this is just my opinion.
If I heard someone say *HoD HeghmoH yaS wa'DIch*, I'd assume the first officer didn't intend to kill the captain. * HIchDal SeHlawDaq ba'pu' yaS QIp, 'ej HoD HeghmoHpu'.* *The stupid officer sat on the airlock control panel and caused the captain to die.* Or maybe that he didn't kill the captain directly. * QuSpu' cheng Sa', 'ej Qang HeghmoH.* *General Chang conspired and caused the chancellor to die.* bI'reng
