Either you have put two type-9 verb suffixes on the same verb, or you
have used the possessive pronoun reserved for language-using beings
to possess your "measureness". I'm assuming the latter because I
can't parse the former at all, and that you have accidentally used
-wI' because YOU are a person and you want to describe your own height.

1.19 x 10^-16 loghqam vI'ab
pagh vI' pagh pagh pagh vagh qelI'qam vI'ab.
But light years and qeliqams are unusual units for personal measurements.
Note also that the conjunction is je. je' means feed or buy.
