In qIrq wItlha’taHqu’, Klaa stresses the tlha’ and the -qu’, just as you’d expect. It doesn’t answer the question posed. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name From: Lieven L.

If in spoken klingon, I'm able to stress the verb suffix which I want to emphasize, then why the jay' would I ever need to use the -qu', after a suffix, while speaking ?
Well, go back to the first use of it and there is your situation: When there is only ONE suffix. STV, Captain Klaa: {qIrq wItlha'taHqu'} "Where Kirk goes, we follow." The difference is like {wItlha'taH} - "we will keep following him" {wItlha'taHqu'} - "we will keep following him forever" -- Lieven L.
