[tlhIngan Hol] HeghmoH

In tkd {HeghmoH} is given as "be fatal". Does this mean that whenever someone uses it, he *has* to use it in order to say that "something is fatal" ? And thus only use it as a be verb ? Can't someone use it in order to say "something/someone caused something/someone to die" ? And so use it in a transitive way ? qunnoq
