I would prefer to write <DanaDHa'lu'ta'. quv DaHutlhchu'> to avoid the
synonymous noun/adjective. <batlh DaHutlhchu'> *could* mean "You lack it
honorably."

BUT - is there a MO distinction between <quv> and <batlh> in their nominal
use? I don't recall one, but if I am wrong, this suggestion might be
incorrect.
