Clearly your suffix order error has been included as a test.

Personally, I don't like N-N-N constructions. They feel clunky to me.
I'd have recast this as a complex sentence, thusly:

tlhIngan Hol lo'meH Dubba'taH laHlIj.

Or something similar. Of course, I am not one of the grammarians,
and there may be other errors creeping in that I fail to see.
