The punctuation rules of Klingon are not important as there is no consistent canon, so there is no reason to say that "the comma should have been a period".

Also, as the TKW sentence "nuHlIj DawIvpu', vaj yISuv." shows, Okrand has used a comma before vaj.

My answer was intended to defend SuStel’s correct analysis of the problem with this canon example of the use of {vaj}. I want to be clear about that. Either there’s an omitted conjunction, or the comma should have been a period.

Indeed fergusq, reading the Ca'Non examples that you mentioned, I too can't understand why {vaj} wouldn't be one of the best choices for the Duolingo sentence. I'm just wondering reading SuStel's reply, in case there's something I'm missing.
