I don't think the sentence is meaningful. *-chuq* means the subject is 
plural and does the verb to each other. It doesn't work for the object.

*tlhInganpu' romuluSnganpu' je chev qeylIS*/
Kahless separates the Klingons and the Romulans./

Then does this mean that "kahless separates the klingons from the romulans" ?

Or does it mean that:

"There is a group of klingons and romulans, kahless takes this group,
and causes each member (regardless whether he's a klingon or romulan),
to separate the other member (regardless whether he's a klingon or
romulan)" ?

And don't axe me, what "causes each member to separate the other"
actually means, because I don't know.</pre>
