Don’t forget that imperative prefixes are different from normal second-person subject, no object prefixes. It’s not {Su’IQchoHQo’}. It’s {pe’IQchoHQo’} I’m also not sure whether Klingons would translate names with rank in this cultural translation. Would it be [sidius darth] or perhaps {SIDyuS Datlh}? charghwI’ ‘utlh

oh, you're definitely right, charghwI' ! I forgot to use {pe-}. As far as the "darth sidious" vs "sidious darth", I think that indeed klingons would say "sidious darth", placing the title/rank last. I didn't transliterate though, since transliteration often can become confusing to the reader. ~ mayqel *I love maltz* qunen'oS
