I did wait, but given noone else has corrected this: there is no head noun
to your relative phrase. Either
               nucharghta' luneHbogh ghot DISopmo' maQuch

or
               nucharghta' luneHwI' DISopmo' maQuch

A surprisingly good film, Addams 2, btw. Couldn't work out for the life of
me though why they didn't turn Debbie into an Addams at the end.

Comparisons between Klingons and Addamses respectfully deleted. ;)
