Re: yu' jIghaj...
I thank you for your corrections and understand them, just stupid mistakes while I was writing quickly.
What I was actually trying to say was, "I speak German, but my English is better" How do you get a sense of one thing being better than something else in German, is there a suffix I can add to /QaQ/ to make it /QaQ/er or litterally am "gooder"?

Say, rather:
*Germany*ngan Hol vIjatlh! 'ach QaQ *England*ngan HolwIj.
"I speak German! But my English is good."
qeraq, see if you can figure out my corrections.
Note: Most people use {DIvI' Hol} Federation Standard (lit. "the
Federation's language") for English, even though they're not necessarily
the same thing.
*Germany*ngan Hol vIjatlh! 'ach QaQ DIvI' HolwIj.
"I speak German! But my Federation Standard is good."
Also, others will often clip language names like {*Germany*ngan Hol} to
just {*German* Hol} to save typing.
