This might be an interesting case for studying the difference between -be' and -Ha', and the relative ordering of suffixes.

pongvetlh vIghovbe'. ghaytanHa' noy.

If {nIq} refers to a person named "Nick", it is much more likely to be
someone personal to Okrand than a public figure. Also, this Nick
Sousanis appears to be an artist, rather than a knitter or weaver.
(That he has "weave" in the name of his blog is probably just a
coincidence.)
