I toyed around with the phrase myself and wonder if anyone thinks the following is valid:
HeghmeH QaQ 'oH DaHjaj
I don't see why -ghach is needed since Hegh can also be a verb (to die) and so the -mey purpose clause marker could be used to say "for death"
Does QaQ 'oH Dahjaj really say "Today is a good day"? or is that why you use the 'e' to imply "day"?
