Perhaps you shouldn't try to work it out this way. Try rephrasing the
sentence. Instead of saying "I feel homesick," for example, say, "I am
always thinking about home," or whatever is appropriate for the situation.
You're going to find that Klingon is easier to learn when you focus more on
verbs than nouns and adjectives. There are many more verbs to work with!
