Because today's KWOTD was {Qub}, @chaQDI posted the sentence {jIQub vaj
jIHtaH} to Twitter.
I recognised it immediately as a translation of "je pense, donc je suis",
better known through the Latin "cogito ergo sum".
Would you use {jIHtaH} for this or just plain {jIH}? I think I would have
rendered it as {jIQubmo' jIH}. But I wonder if that wouldn't look like it
was missing the second part of a complex sentence? (Because {jIH} looks
like the subject of {jIQubmo'}.)
How would you have translated it?
