qajatlhneS:

  Since I'm well on my way to making a Mac parser, I came across a
question (okay, many questions)..

1)  Can you have multiple rovers in your verb?  Some of the suffixes
(like -Ha', I think), come right after the verb, but how about -be'?
Can I say something like... vIHoHbe'qangbe'?  I am not willing to not
kill him?  Is this sort of thing possible?

2)  The other question was something I saw in TKD.  The sentence I was
worried about was: yaS vIHoH...  I killed the officer.  Wouldn't it be
better to say: yaS bIHoH?  Why would I want to say vI?  That sounds
more like: I killed him the officer.

Any thoughts?

Qapla'!
