I have also recently being writing things like
"meH Daghaj" or "chuyDaH Daghaj'a'?" because it's
a use of "have" in English in my profession. Or
in Star Trek "Mr. Spock, you have the conn."

I would expect that.

><juppu'lI''e' tlhIngan Hol jatlhlaH'a' vay'.>
And that.

I would be uneasy about those.
For diseases I would say "pom SIQ" rather than "pom ghaj."

Again, superb essay. I wish we had more examples
of Marc using unexpected verbs. I'm a little
disappointed every time Klingon does something the same way as English does it.
