No surprises on the use of -logh in MKE: It says Duj ghajchugh vay, cha'logh boq'egh qav'ap motlh; chen qav'ap le'. ghajwI'vaD qav'ap le' yIDIl. "If owned, pay owner twice the rental to which they are otherwise entitled."

(But it is proof that actual numbers aren't required in arithmetic expressions; as one might expect, it's possible to insert a word like qav'ap that has some numeric value that may be unspecified.
Also, something I hadn't noticed before: evidently DIl can be used to mean "pay (the amount paid)," and not just the gloss of "pay for," so you might say Duj vIje'meH wa' 'uy' DarSeq vIDIlpu' "I paid one million darseks to buy the ship." If it weren't for this canon example, to play it safe I'd use some kind of wording like Duj vIDIlmeH wa' 'uy' DarSeq vInatlhpu' "I spent one million darseks to pay for the ship.")

Ah, okay. What’s the example? My Klingon Monopoly set is six thousand kellicams away at the moment.
