pagh here we go again (sorry for the redundency--I've sent this several times and I'm sure someone will get tired of this particular post) --but I included english this time
these are really old but I was still hoping for a responce
pagh , if you didn't understand this statment it might be because I ment it as a response to an insult jeyD called someone a "nuvHom QIp" (and that someone couldn't speak klingon and therefore couldn't answer for himself.). Therefore I felt this insult warented a warriors response heehee, so I insulted him back (I refered to him as a small bothersome insect--in context I thought it made sence but I guess not)
(there is no honor in insulting some small weakling anything ("there is no honor in killing a Qa'hom" ))

:OK, I wish you had included the English here as well. I'm not quite :sure
:what you are trying to say.
sorry, I thought that I was at the point where you would know what I was talking about--but I guess not =] *sigh* oh well--english below
: Minor stuff first: I think you meant <bIngDaq>
:rather than <bIng DaQ>. <bIngDaq> is "under", while <bIng DaQ> is "the
:ponytail of the area under", which is just weird.
oops, you are right so I fixed that (below)
:<batlh> is not a verb - you want <quv> here.
oops another good point fixed below
DujHoD graciously supplied a better word for crushed so I added it
this is after I read your responce so hopfully I fixed all the errors

(this time ill put it in english)
---> only a knat insults a small weakling humanoid and it (the bug) is --->obviously worthless but it is worth being "crushed" under my boot. --->therefore the small bug has less honor than the weakling humanoid --->does
2)I also wanted to say something with <except> but couldn't figure out how to do it so I obviously rephrased it but how would I have said that?? <its obviously worthless except to be crushed under my boot>?--does what I said carry that meaning or is there a better way to express it?
and below is the other old post:

and this is something posted 22 nov 99. I dont think your E-mail was working then--and besides I dont know how you handle all of the BG traffic anyway, I certainly couldn't but if you could critique it I probably still could learn from these past mistakes even though it was written a month ago and ive learned quite a bit since then)
(the first part is to show it in context, the second part are my sentences)

pagh--these are the sentences that I wrote in responce to qr'ral more than a month ago that I ask you to look at
>my response to him

* this challenge of yours*?
the one question I have about the above sentences above are several axamples of a pronoun and a verb prefix <vISov jIH> <chojatlh SoH> <vIneH jIH> <DaHech SoH>---should I drop the pronoun since the prefix carries the meaning or should it be included
> paq....please criticize my sentences
> and qa'ral.... is that what you meant?
as I said qa'ral answered me so I know what he meant and where I was
making any errors in translating his statements but how were my sentences??
