&gt; &gt;&gt;One more possibility is &#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39;Daq chaHtaH cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;&#39;e&#39;.<br>

<p>Qov:<br>
&gt; &gt; Again it makes me wonder if they are on them? In them?</p>
<p>loghaD:<br>
&gt; I feel that &quot;among them&quot; is the only sensible way to interpret this, and that it&#39;s therefore unambiguous enough.<br>
&gt; [Well, maybe one COULD interpret it as though they were traveling TOWARDS the enterers, which would be unfortunate. In that case, tlhej really would be preferable.<br>
&gt; I was tempted to use [lu]tu&#39;lu&#39;, but I didn&#39;t want to make it out as though one had discovered them to be tricksters right from the start.]</p>

<p>{&#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39;Daq leng cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;}<br>
Two tricksters travel on/in the entrants.  (Maybe they&#39;re shrunken like in the movies &quot;Fantastic Voyage&quot; or &quot;Honey, I Shrunk the Kids&quot;.)</p>
<p>{&#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39;Daq chaHtaH cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;&#39;e&#39;}<br>
Two tricksters are on the entrants.  (Ditto.)</p>
<p>{&#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39; ghomDaq leng cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;}<br>

{&#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39; ghom luleng cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;}<br>
Two tricksters travel to the group of entrants. (The {lu-} prefix makes it clear that {ghom} is the destination.)</p>
<p>{&#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39; tlhej cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;}<br>
Two tricksters are with the entrants.</p>
<p>{lengtaHvIS &#39;elwI&#39;pu&#39; tlhej cha&#39; tojwI&#39;pu&#39;}<br>
Two tricksters are travelling with the entrants.</p>
