I got a couple hundred messages behind. Zipping through them, I saw someone suggesting something about {leghlu'ghach} that was alien to anything I'd expect.
First, I'd expect usage to be extremely rare, requiring special circumstances. Imagine that you were investigating a crime that you know had witnesses, but you have no means to find them. Without the witnesses, you can't solve the crime. The investigator reports to his superior:
HeSvam leghlu'ghachmo' Qu'wIj vIta'laHbe'neS.
Because of the indefiniteness of who saw this crime, I cannot accomplish my mission, sir.
