More importantly, using *-chuq* prevents the use of an object.

I think you meant to include*nIH* in there somewhere.

Originally I did, but Qov suggested *ratlh* and upon looking it up, I
agreed.

Some people would get twitchy over your using a comma as a sentence
conjunction. Maybe *SuvchoHchugh* makes more sense than *Suvba'chugh*,
but it's your story.
*
vIjang:**
*I used {-ba} because I wanted to convey the *slight* uncertainty of a
fight. Obviously as enemies there's a good chance they may, but if
*...'uchchuq poS DeSDu', loDnI' rur* /"They grasp left arms as
brothers,"/ then there may not. The audience should know that.
