Kudos, tho, to marqoS and Legend, for sealing up this potential can of worms.
I liked both's ideas. The thing is to get the meaning. None of this literal
{'IwvaD jach 'Iw} stuff before considering what the sentence really means.
It's the thoughts, not the words. Speaking of which, {DaHjaj Heghlu'chugh vaj
QaQ ghu'}. Nobody would have thought of that unless they're ridiculous enough
to think of {-lu'} the way I do.
