I'm trying to do this from memory. Let's see if I've got that pesky word
order down this time...
tlhingan Hol jIghoj. vIneH.
I want to learn Hol.
jIQong. vIneH.
I want to go to sleep.
Saj jIqIpbe'.
I did not hit the pet.
Saj jIqIp. vIneHbe'.
I don't want to hit the pet.
jIH HoH Saj. neH.
The pet wants to kill me.
What's the difference (if any) between:
jIHoH
HoH jIH
OK, time for a good tagline. In English I like to use "Eschew Obfuscation".
(My favorite 2 word joke.)
lajbe' So'mu'
"Eschew" means to reject, or shun. "lajbe'" was the best I could find.
"Obfuscation" means to make vague and unclear, so as to hide the meaning.
"Word-cloak" seemed to be appropriate, but I'm open to suggestions.
