At another thread we accepted the following as being correct:
{tlhIngan maH. taHjaj} we are klingons. may it continue.
And the way I understand the above sentence, it goes "may it continue. what ? the fact that we are klingons".
Lets assume now that I write the following:
{latlh be' vImuSHa'. 'e' DaSov} I love another woman. You know that.
Based on the {tlhIngan maH. taHjaj}, why couldn't I write too:
{latlh be' vImuSHa. DaSov} I love another woman. You know it.
And be equally correct ? Do I necessarily need to place the {'e'} before the {DaSov} ?
In addition to the other replies, consider also that Qov obviously wanted to include the common and classic utterance *tlhIngan maH* in what is supposed to be an important and repeated line. It's not just some random sentence; it's a slogan. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
