I think as I was reading your sentence I had an idea of what you were up to
-- and, as QeS has shown, you actually were more right than either of us
knew! Qapla'! Generally the strategy you were using of basing your new
phrases on canonical examples is SUPERB -- and, as you can see, often opens
up possibilities that otherwise might be passed over.
{choleghpu'mo' SuHeghlI'} looks good!
Concerning agreement, you're right that there is nothing that says the
"you" in both sentences are somehow related; in other words, it is just as
ambiguous as in English.

Thanks for the response 'arHa.
Haha, was trying to say, "teacher, be not forgotten!". I guess I was
trying to use the -lu' as kind of a pseudo-passive voice marker, turning
forget into forgotten, as is done in some of the -lu' examples. (Deqawlu' -
you are remembered, from qaw - remember, TKD 4.2.5). I was unsure as to
how to work that with the imperative, since the subject is always you, and
I wanted a null object, and it didn't say anything to the ~contrary~....
Hehe.
As for 'e' and -mu', after looking back at the type 9's, I realized
they're all clause markers, so 'e' to create a sub clause was unnecessary.
So let's try that again:
choleghpu'mo' SuHeghlI'
Which brings up another question (due to my error in prefixes hehe):
agreement of person. Many you's are dying, because of one you. Need these
agree in Klingon, or does it allow the flexibility of addressing the
different groups? (I ask because I couldn't find anything related to
clause-person agreement in the TKD).
