This is a test to see if anyone can understand what I'm saying with this
sentence:

 maH chaHbogh maHbe'

How do you (pl.)[1] interpret that?

I interpret it to be three Klingon words mashed together. It kind of means, 
"We are not the 'we' who they are." This is incredibly ugly. You are 
hammering away at the verb "to be", which the Klingon language barely 
supports and a Klingon certainly would never apply this much focus on such 
mess.

The Klingon mind wants to see something happen. What exactly is happening 
in your sentence? What purpose or mission is being served? Where is honor? 
Why would any Klingon bother with those three words? It is as bad as "taH 
pagh taHbe'", which is the worst thing Okrand ever wrote.

taghqIj

[1] the TKD is getting into my brain... :)

Not quite far enough yet, but you're getting there. Keep it up.
