{jIDataH 'e' cherghbe'} "She doesn't tolerate that I behave." It doesn't
get across that its the way you are behaving is annoying her. Perhaps ...
SoSwI' vInuQtaH - I'm annoying my mother
QIpwI' vIDataHmo' puQ SoSwI' - My mother is fed up because I keep acting stupid.
I think it works best in Klingon if you describe the behaviour that so
irritates your mother.
