>=tInwI'bID, SoplI' vIghaj jatlhqu' Qa' wa'
>SoplIj. Food is not a person. (Well, not anymore.)
Food is also not {Sop}. Use {Soj}.
>=Ha'DIbaHvam pujlaw' qar'a' tlhob'egh
>pujlaw' qar'a' Ha'DIbaHvam
No, {pujlaw' Ha'DIbaHvam qar'a'}. See page 179. The tag sentence "qar'a'"
follows the previous sentence, it doesn't intervene inside it.
>=lay'lI' Dapol
>lay' is not a noun. pol isn't the best verb either: lay'pu'ghachlIj
>DaleHlaw'ta'
or better, avoid the "-ghach" with "-mo'". Something like "bIlay'pu'mo'
yIta'" (or replace "ta'" with an appropriate verb). Think like charghwI'.
