So that's what's happening! Finally I understand, thanks.

I'm glad to be reading this, because this answers the next thing I was about to ask.

I was wondering why there's no similar problem with the original Ca'Non sentence of {beyHom bey bey'a' jachtaH}. And reading your reply I understand, that the reason there's no problem with the {beyHom bey bey'a' jachtaH} is that in this case we have nouns which can only be understood as part of the main sentence.

However, since in the {'a qaStaHvIS yInDaj DISmey, DI'onmeyna'Daj 'agh 'aghqu' 'aghchu'} the thing repeated is a verb instead of a noun, one could wonder whether each {'agh} applies to the {qaStaHvIS yInDaj DISmey} or not.
