You seem to have left out the adjectival verb describing it. 
&gt; Otherwise, you are spot on.

ghItlh </font><font face="arial">gheyIl.

&gt; &gt; But how to say, "My ship flies faster than your ship"? There are no verbs
&gt; &gt; of quality meaning "be fast" or "be slow" (at least, I can't find any). But
&gt; &gt; there are adverbs {nom} and {QIt}.
&gt; 
&gt; There may not be a verb for "to be fast" but there is a word for 
velocity/speed.
&gt; DujwIj Do law' DujlIj Do puS.
&gt; My ship's speed is greater than your ship's speed.
&gt; And if you want to specify that it's faster when "flying", start with a clause 
as already mentioned.
&gt; puvtaHvIS DujwIj Do law' DujlIj Do puS.
