An alternative:

yItorQo’!

Neither {not yItor} nor {yItorQo’} is spectacularly superior to the other. There’s also {reH yItorQo’} and likely other creative alternatives, depending on subtle differences in desired emphasis.

Ok, thanks!

This whole matter is rather strange.. If I read in english "usually study!" it sounds awkward, but if I read in klingon {motlh yIHaD}, then this is something I could swallow.

Anyway though, since 'oqranD has used the adverb-imperative combination, then all is well.

Thank you, vortarulo!
