however, the question now arises:
because {Qap} can take an object, we can say {noH wIQap}. but can the {luj} take an object as well ? because if it cannot take an object, then we can't say {noH wIluj}, and we can only say things like {vanDI' noH, maluj}.
so, can the {luj} take an object ?
noH DalujlaHbe'chugh noH DaQaplaHbe'. There are many Klingon verbs without canon examples to clarify whether they can take an object or what the object would be. You just have to go by the definition, and how similar or related verbs are used. In the case of {luj}, I don't have any evidence that it takes an object (maybe someone can find some). But I think it's reasonable to treat it as parallel to {Qap}, bearing in mind that Maltz can always contradict this. -- De'vID
