"jaghpu'" "jagh" pagh ghItlhnIS.

"jaghmey" means 'enemies all over the place', e.g.,
        HoD, jaghmey vIlegh. nuDech!
        -- maj.  Dat yIbach, bIyepnISbe'*, jagh Damupbej.
Here ghunchu'wI' would have done better to write "jaghpu'", with the
ordinary animate plural suffix, or simply "jagh", since "a noun
without a plural suffix may still refer to more than one entity (p.
21).

* (I can't believe we have no way to say 'aim'!)
