Speaking of X [pronoun] Y'e' constructions, can 'e' be the pronoun? Like if
I were making a Klingon arcade game, and wanted to say "Your goal is to
shoot the asteroids", would "ghopDapmey Dabach 'e' ngoQlIj'e' " work? I
mean, you *could* just say "ghopDapmey tIbach!", but that doesn't cover all
the situations when you want to define a noun with an action...
Pardon all the weird questions; I started translating a little thingy for
fun, and it turned out to not be as straightforward as it looked at first
:-P.
