Translation Question to check my skills
To see how accurate my estimated translation is, I tried translating “I did it but now it’s redundant” to Klingon best I could and I resulted with this: “wIta’ ‘oH ‘ach DaH ‘oH raq”, which appears to literally be “I accomplished it but now it [is] redundant”. Can someone please confirm how correct this sentence is?

Just adding to my post, it looks like I meant “vI” and not “wI”.
vIta’ ‘oH ‘ach DaH ‘oH raq means I accomplished it, it, but now, it, he/she/it is repetitive
Klingon uses “object verb subject” grammar for its sentences, so the ‘oHs you are using as objects are in the wrong places. It looks like you understand how prefixes work though.
(‘oH) vIta’ ‘ach DaH raq (‘oH) means I accomplish it but now it is repetitive/redundant
We also don’t need the ‘oHs unless the context doesn’t make it clear that we are talking about an “it”.
Thanks!
