You're looking for synonyms. *je* is not a synonym for *'ej.* Don't 
abuse the grammar in the search of novelty of expression. No me talk 
funny need for to be interesting.

*Su'IH 'ej Suwoch
Su'IH; Suwoch
**'IHwI' tlhIH 'ej wochwI' tlhIH
'IHwI' wochwI' je tlhIH*

Give them to me in context and I'll give you even more possibilities. 
Give me a passage you consider plodding and we'll come up with something 
better.
