Just trying to catch up on things.
In "Power Klingon", Two Century old wine is translated as <<cha' vatlh DIS ben
HIq.>> Which is literally "200 years ago wine". The usage then means years
old. Following from this example then couldn't we say:
vagh ben ghaH puq'e' (The child is five years old.)
loSmaH ben jIH (I am fourty years old.)
