QaQqu' je, 'ach ghobe', {ghoH} vIHechbejpu'. jatlh DIvI' Hol chovnatlh: "I was irritated and quarrelled with him." But since the warrior in the sabre bear pelt didn't say anything, I guess ghoH is kinda weird here.

HIja'. chaq qaq Sol.

Haha, for sure. "He didn't salute me, dammit! So I sent twelve men to their deaths!"

So he did kill them all. Who were the injured who were being bandaged up? I couldn't quite work that out.

There's no Klingon word for cement.

Now I think about it I remember we also have the lexeme Somraw, so to be safe I might switch back to it. Not that I have a problem with Ha'DIbaH in that sense either, though.

qechvethvaD Qapbej <Hom Somraw je>.

It's intended to be "send messages to districts where you can go, and to cities you cannot enter". I might repeat the {QInmey tIlI'} bit to clarify.

Oh, I got more of a "let me know if there's anywhere you aren't permitted to go" vibe from it. I didn't get at all that they were extending their reach by using messages as opposed to personal visits. Multiple meanings of -Daq.
