yIqIm: Hol in books



yIqIm:

Just finished reading "The Ashes Of Eden" by William Shatner and ran
across some Hol that I'd like the Grammerians to comment on.

From:
Star Trek
The Ashes of Eden
by William Shatner
Pocket Books Publishing

(paperback)
ISBN 0-671-52036-9

p16

<...jav...vagh...>   6...5

p36
<Chalchaj 'qmey>  Children of Heaven (per the book)
                  chal (n) - sky (heaven??)
                  chaj (NS4) - their
                  'q (N?) - ???? (short for <puq>??) **********
                   mey (NS2) - plural gen

p188

p221
<chalwutlh> the underworld
                    chal (n) - sky (heaven??)
                    wutlh (n) - underground

<chalchaj> heaven

<Chal> the name of the planet

p292
<QIH poj> damage analysis


Query:
Interesting use of <chalwutlh>. Is this valid? What about *<'qmey>?? Is
this valid or did the publishers (typesetters) mess up? Wouldn't <chalchaj
'qmey> realy be "Children of their heaven"?? or should *<chalchaj 'qmey>
realy be *<chalchaj puqmey> ??
