Now doesn't it get confusing if I do something like:
He/she/it shows Maug the red star.
>From the marqoS example:
> Hov Doq wIbav We're orbiting the red star.
The translation of "He shows big Maug the red star" would be:
Hov Doq cha' Maug tIn
Right? Now... if I'm trying to quickly understand written (let's not even
get into what happens if I *hear* this tidbit), how could I quickly figure
out which of the three "verbs" in this sentence is the actual verb?
Am I just being difficult, or what?
Qapla'!
