I was wondering, whether we can say {nuq bIH *whatever*'e'}, with the "whatever" being plural of course. I'm used to seeing only {nuq 'oH *whatever*'e'}.. Suppose I write: {nuq bIH kermit'e' coookie monster'e' je ?} (With the obvious answer being: {raghghanmey}). Would it be correct, or would I *need* to write {nuq 'oH ...} ? ~ bara'qa'

It needs to be plural, and it needs to be **chaH,** because they are clearly beings capable of using language. **nuq chaH Kermit'e' Cookie Monster'e' je?** -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
Interesting device, but I doubt it works on radar or bullets or heat-seeking missiles, and it gives already-overburdened soldiers one more thing to have to carry around, and if you don’t hold it straight, and your background isn’t repeating or consistent, it’s not going to help that much. Enemies can just aim at the blurry spot until it falls over. charghwI’ vaghnerya’ngan rInpa’ bomnIS be’’a’ pI’.

Being on the subject.. I can't stop wondering, if we could say in klingon "me want cookies".. Perhaps.. {jIH.. chabHommey vIneH}. But unfortunately this fails to convey the "cookie monster" feeling.. ~ gha'cher qIj

chabHommey neHqu' jIH
And he should rarely use possessive suffixes. *jIH SoSoy neH jIH */Me want me mommy./ He should drop pronouns-as-to-be wherever possible: *nuqDaq chabHom? buqDaq chabHom. */Where cookie? Cookie in bag./ He should mostly talk about himself, and he should occasionally forget these rules and say something the right way.
