It's perfectly grammatical and not at all understandable.
The thing I was wondering was whether the Klingon sentence can mean what the English one says. And -if I understand your reply correctly- indeed the Klingon sentence can mean what the English sentence says. Of course, I understand that the Klingon sentence isn't quite clear since it can mean other things too, so it isn't something I'd choose to use either. But -as always- I'm trying to understand how things work. -- Dana'an https://sacredtextsinklingon.wordpress.com/ Ζεὺς ἦν, Ζεὺς ἐστίν, Ζεὺς ἔσσεται· ὦ μεγάλε Ζεῦ
