It's already legal to do something like this using clipped
Klingon. We've seen {Dochvam nuq} in canon, which seems to
be short for {Dochvam 'oH nuq'e'}. You might say something
like {pongwIj 'oH Matthew'e'} "Matthew is my name" and clip
it to {pongwIj Matthew} "my name, Matthew". And if you
point to yourself while saying it you can probably drop the
{-wIj}: {pong Matthew}, "Name, Matthew".
