------------------------- tera'gnan Hol! --------------------------------------
----- When I parsed out that last sentence I got;
jatlhlaHlaw'bogh : which is seemingly able to speak
Ha'DIbaH : animal
'oH : it (pronoun)
Sajvam'e' : this Pet (Topic)
I beleive this translates to "This pet is an animal which is seemingly
able to speak." If I got that right, why is the pronoun 'oH needed here?
Why not; jatlhlaHlaw' Ha'DIbah Sajvam'e'
