Don't worry; it's hard to remember the second-person plural stuff; it's
probably the least common "person" in Klingon speech, since we're either
talking third-person events (the most common of any speech in probably any
language), first-person experiences, or occasionally one-on-one. Second
person is rarest in literature in most languages I've seen, and plural
rarer still (I remember seeing hardly any of it when studying
Sanskrit... but the forms were still there, even in dual!). But it's worth
trying to get right.
