Now, that gives me ideas. The situation I have in mind is, that someone wants to propose such a more physical relationship to someone.
While Klingon directness and the principle
<<pe'vIl yIjatlh!>>
... are intriguing me to assume, that saying
<<manga'chuq! Ha'!>> or <<HIngagh!>>
would be appropriate in a few situations, could he/she instead ask (e.g., in... uhm... less upheated situations)
<<parmaqqaywI' SoHqang'a'?>>
I reread TKD section 6.3., but could not conclude, how natural it feels to put ALL KIND of suffixes on pronouns.
Besides grammatical advice - for a Klingon, would this maybe sound a little cheesy?
