> Indiana-Daq jIbogh je jIH.

yajlu'chu'meH, <Indiana-Daq jIbogh jIH je> vImaS.  'ach DuH'a'?  mujlaw':

The noun conjunction {je} has an additional function: when it follows a verb, 
it means *also, too*.



   {qaleghpu' je} *I also saw you, I saw you too*

As in English, the meaning of such sentences is ambiguous: *I and others 
saw you* or *I saw you and others.* The exact meaning is determined by 
context. (TKD 5.3, p. 55)

<je>'e' latlh De' wIghaj'a'?
