Mistake in phrase listing?

• From: [email protected] (The Songbringer -- Marnen to the common folk)

In the "Useful [?] Phrases" section of TKD, "Always trust your instincts" is
translated as >Duj tivoqtaH<. >Duj<, while representing a plural, is
grammatically a singular noun (in these respects like >cha<, >ray'<, >chuyDaH<)
and should be treated as such, so shouldn't it be >Duj yivoqtaH< or am I
overlooking something?

Qapla' Qichqemwi'vo'.
